We extend the results of our recent preprint [arXiv: 1811.00515] into higher dimensions $n \geq 4$. For minimizing harmonic maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega,\mathbb{S}^2)$ from $n$-dimensional domains into the two dimensional sphere we prove: (1)…

In this paper we study the singular set of Dirichlet-minimizing $Q$-valued maps from $\mathbb{R}^m$ into a smooth compact manifold $\mathcal{N}$ without boundary. Similarly to what happens in the case of single valued minimizing harmonic…

The Einstein/Abelian-Yang-Mills Equations reduce in the stationary and axially symmetric case to a harmonic map with prescribed singularities $\p\colon\R^3\sm\Sigma\to\H^{k+1}_\C$ into the $(k+1)$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space. In…

We study regularity of minimizing $p$-harmonic maps $u \colon B^3 \to \mathbb{S}^3$ for $p$ in the interval $[2,3]$. For a long time, regularity was known only for $p = 3$ (essentially due to Morrey) and $p = 2$ (Schoen-Uhlenbeck), but…

In 1996, Shi generalized the epsilon-regularity theorem of Schoen and Uhlenbeck to energy-minimizing harmonic maps from a domain equipped with a bounded measurable Riemannian metric. In the present work we prove a compactness result for…

Energy-minimizing constraint maps are a natural extension of the obstacle problem within a vectorial framework. Due to inherent topological constraints, these maps manifest a diverse structure that includes singularities similar to harmonic…

We prove the existence of nonconstant harmonic maps of optimal regularity from an arbitrary closed manifold $(M^n,g)$ of dimension $n>2$ to any closed, non-aspherical manifold $N$ containing no stable minimal two-spheres. In particular,…

In this paper, we establish an $\varepsilon$-regularity theorem for minimizers of an Alt-Phillips type functional subject to constraint maps. We prove that under sufficiently small energy, the minimizers exhibit regularity, and hence…

We study a rather broad class of optimal partition problems with respect to monotone and coercive functional costs that involve the Dirichlet eigenvalues of the partitions. We show a sharp regularity result for the entire set of minimizers…
