A well-known theorem of Wolpert shows that the Weil-Petersson symplectic form on Teichm\"uller space, computed on two infinitesimal twists along simple closed geodesics on a fixed hyperbolic surface, equals the sum of the cosines of the…
We determine regularity results for energy minimizing maps from an $n$-dimensional Riemannian polyhedral complex $X$ into a CAT(1) space. Provided that the metric on $X$ is Lipschitz regular, we prove H\"older regularity with H\"older…
In this paper we give a general family of conformal invariants associated to bordered Riemann surfaces endowed with boundary parametrizations, or equivalently compact surfaces endowed with conformal maps. Each invariant is specified by 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…
We study the Carath\'eodory metric on some generalized Teichm\"uller spaces. Earle showed that the Carath\'eodory metric is complete on any Teichm\"uller space. Miyachi extended this result for Asymptotic Teichm\"uller spaces. We study the…
In this work we are going to establish H\"older continuity of harmonic maps from an open set $\Omega$ in an ${\rm RCD}(K,N)$ space valued into a ${\rm CAT}(\kappa)$ space, with the constraint that the image of $\Omega$ via the map is…
In this paper we study the Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow as introduced by Rupflin and Topping [15]. It evolves pairs of maps and metrics $(u,g)$ into branched minimal immersions, or equivalently into weakly conformal harmonic maps, where…
It is known that every finitely unbranched covering $\alpha:\widetilde{S}_{g(\alpha)}\rightarrow S$ of a compact Riemann surface $S$ with genus $g\geq2$ induces an isometric embedding $\Gamma_{\alpha}$ from the Teichm\"uller space $T(S)$ to…
We investigate in detail the connection between harmonic maps from Riemann surfaces into the unitary group $\U(n)$ and their Grassmannian models: these are families of shift-invariant subspaces of $L^2(S^1,\C^n)$. With the help of…
We construct a Weil-Petersson geodesic completion of Teichmuller space through the formalism of Coxeter complex with the Teichmuller space as its non-linear non-homogeneous fundamental domain. We show that the metric and geodesic…
The problem of starlikeness of Teichmuller spaces in Bers' embedding was raised in 1974 and is solved (negatively) for Teichmuller spaces of sufficiently large dimensions. The original proof given by the author relies on the existence of…
We consider the Dirichlet problem for stationary biharmonic maps $u$ from a bounded, smooth domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$ ($n\ge 5$) to a compact, smooth Riemannian manifold $N\subset\mathbb R^l$ without boundary. For any smooth…
In this article we extend to generic $p$-energy minimizing maps between Riemannian manifolds a regularity result which is known to hold in the case $p=2$. We first show that the set of singular points of such a map can be quantitatively…
As is known, the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator $\Lambda$ of a Riemannian surface $(M,g)$ determines the surface up to conformal equivalence class $[(M,g)]$. Such classes constitute the Teichm\"uller space with the distance ${\rm d}_T$. We…
For $M$ being a closed manifold or the Euclidean space we present a detailed proof of regularity properties of the composition of $H^s$-regular diffeomorphisms of $M$ for $s > 1/2\dim M + 1$.
If $p : Y \to X$ is an unramified covering map between two compact oriented surfaces of genus at least two, then it is proved that the embedding map, corresponding to $p$, from the Teichm\"uller space ${\cal T}(X)$, for $X$, to ${\cal…
For a harmonic map $u:M^3\to S^1$ on a closed, oriented $3$--manifold, we establish the identity $$2\pi \int_{\theta\in S^1}\chi(\Sigma_{\theta})\geq \frac{1}{2}\int_{\theta\in S^1}\int_{\Sigma_{\theta}}(|du|^{-2}|Hess(u)|^2+R_M)$$ relating…
We prove that if an RCD space has a regular isometric immersion in a Euclidean space, then the immersion is a locally bi-Lipschitz embedding map. This result leads us to prove that if a compact non-collapsed RCD space has an isometric…
We prove that for any open Riemann surface $N,$ natural number $n\geq 3,$ non-constant harmonic map $h:N\to \mathbb{R}^{n-2}$ and holomorphic 2-form $H$ on $N,$ there exists a weakly complete harmonic map $X=(X_j)_{j=1,\ldots,n}:N \to…
We study boundary regularity of maps from two-dimensional domains into manifolds which are critical with respect to a generic conformally invariant variational functional and which, at the boundary, enter perpendicularly into a support…
