In this paper we consider sequences $u_j:B_2\subseteq M\to N$ of stationary harmonic maps between smooth Riemannian manifolds with uniformly bounded energy $E[u_j]\equiv \int |\nabla u_j|^2\leq \Lambda$ . After passing to a subsequence it…
We study the existence of harmonic maps and Dirac-harmonic maps from degenerating surfaces to non-positive curved manifold via the scheme of Sacks and Uhlenbeck. By choosing a suitable sequence of $\alpha$-(Dirac-)harmonic maps from a…
We show that limits of sequences of smooth maps between compact Riemannian manifolds with equi-integrable $W^{1, p}$-Sobolev energy can always be strongly approximated by smooth maps, giving a counterpart of Hang's density result in $W^{1,…
In this paper, we study the set of absolute continuity of p-harmonic measure, $\mu$, and $(n-1)-$dimensional Hausdorff measure, $\mathcal{H}^{n-1}$, on locally flat domains in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $n\geq 2$. We prove that for fixed $p$ with…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for Riemannian maps to be biharmonic. We also define pseudo umbilical Riemannian maps as a generalization of pseudo-umbilical submanifolds and show that such Riemannian maps put some restrictions…
The general existence of $p$-Dirichlet energy minimizing maps into $Q_Q(l_2)$ is obtained.
Let $\Omega$ be a smooth bounded simply connected domain in $\mathbb{R}^2$. We investigate the existence of critical points of the energy $E_\varepsilon (u)=1/2\int_\Omega |\nabla u|^2+1/(4\varepsilon^2)\int_\Omega (1-|u|^2)^2$, where the…
We show that given an element $X$ of the enhanced Teichm\"{u}ller space $\mathcal{T}^\pm(\mathbb{S}, \mathbb{M})$ and a type-preserving framed $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{C})$-representation $\hat{\rho} = (\rho,\beta)$, there is a…
This is the first in a series of two papers to establish the mass-angular momentum inequality for multiple black holes. We study singular harmonic maps from domains of 3-dimensional Euclidean space to the hyperbolic plane having bounded…
Let $(\Sigma,p)$ be a pointed Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 1$. For any integer $k\geq 1$, we parametrize the space of meromorphic quadratic differentials on $\Sigma$ with a pole of order $(k+2)$ at $p$, having a connected critical graph…
We prove partial regularity of weakly stationary harmonic maps with (partially) free boundary data on manifolds where the domain metric may degenerate or become singular along the free boundary at the rate $d^\alpha$ for the distance…
We consider a natural Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom and Hamiltonian $H=\|p\|^2/2+V(q)$. The configuration space $M$ is a closed surface (for noncompact $M$ certain conditions at infinity are required). It is well known that…
For any given natural $d\ge 1$ we provide examples of rational self-maps of complex projective plane $\pp^2$ of degree $d$ without (holomorphic) fixed points. This makes a contrast with the situation in one dimension. We also prove that the…
We show the existence of non-trivial self-expanding harmonic map flows starting from non-energy-minimizing 0-homogeneous maps to a regular ball or a closed hemisphere. In particular, given a non-minimizing but stationary 0-homogeneous…
We consider half-harmonic maps from $\mathbb{R}$ (or $\mathbb{S}$) to $\mathbb{S}$. We prove that all (finite energy) half-harmonic maps are non-degenerate. In other words, they are integrable critical points of the energy functional. A…
Let $\Sigma$ denote a closed surface with constant mean curvature in $\mathbb{G}^3$, a 3-dimensional Lie group equipped with a bi-invariant metric. For such surfaces, there is a harmonic Gauss map which maps values to the unit sphere within…
Let $\varphi\in C^0 \cap W^{1,2}(\Sigma, X)$ where $\Sigma$ is a compact Riemann surface, $X$ is a compact locally CAT(1) space, and $W^{1,2}(\Sigma,X)$ is defined as in Korevaar-Schoen. We use the technique of harmonic replacement to prove…
In the family of area-contracting H\'enon-like maps with zero topological entropy we show that there are maps with infinitely many moduli of stability. Thus one cannot find all the possible topological types for non-chaotic area-contracting…
In this manuscript, we delve into the study of maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega;\overline M)$ that minimize the Alt-Caffarelli energy functional $$ \int_\Omega (|Du|^2 + q^2 \chi_{u^{-1}(M)})\,dx, $$ under the condition that the image $u(\Omega)$…
We prove that $2$-dimensional $Q$-valued maps that are stationary with respect to outer and inner variations of the Dirichlet energy are H\"older continuous and that the dimension of their singular set is at most one. In the course of the…
