In this paper, we study the blow-up phenomena on the $\alpha_k$-harmonic map sequences with bounded uniformly $\alpha_k$-energy, denoted by $\{u_{\alpha_k}: \alpha_k>1 \quad \mbox{and} \quad \alpha_k\searrow 1\}$, from a compact Riemann…

The Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow is a gradient flow for the harmonic map energy of maps from a closed surface to a general closed Riemannian target manifold of any dimension, where both the map and the domain metric are allowed to…

Using the method of blow-up analysis, we obtain two sharp Trudinger-Moser inequalities on a compact Riemann surface with smooth boundary, as well as the existence of the corresponding extremals. This generalizes early results of Chang-Yang…

We study the blow-up analysis and qualitative behavior for a sequence of harmonic maps with free boundary from degenerating bordered Riemann surfaces with uniformly bounded energy. With the help of Pohozaev type constants associated to…

We investigate the limit behaviour of sequences of free boundary minimal hypersurfaces with bounded index and volume, by presenting a detailed blow-up analysis near the points where curvature concentration occurs. Thereby, we derive a…

Let $M$ be a connected, non-compact $m$-dimensional Riemannian manifold. In this paper we consider smooth maps $\phi: M \to \mathbb{R}^n$ with images inside a non-degenerate cone. Under quite general assumptions on $M$, we provide a lower…

We consider triholomorphic maps from an almost hyper-Hermitian manifold $\mathcal{M}^{4m}$ into a hyperK\"ahler manifold $\mathcal{N}^{4n}$. This means that $u \in W^{1,2}$ satisfies a quaternionic del-bar equation. We work under the…

Consider a sequence of minimal varieties M_i in a Riemannian manifold N such that the boundary measures are uniformly bounded on compact sets. Let Z be the set of points at which the areas of the M_i blow up. We prove that Z behaves in some…

We consider, on a connected metric graph $\mathcal{G}$, a family of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations $$ -u'' + W_n(x) u + \lambda_n u = \rho_n(x)|u|^{p-2}u, \quad n \in \mathbb{N}. \qquad (*) $$ We assume that $p > 2$, $(W_n)$, $(\rho_n)…

A class of equations with exponential nonlinearities on a compact Riemannian surface is considered. More precisely, we study an asymmetric sinh-Gordon problem arising as a mean field equation of the equilibrium turbulence of vortices with…

We generalize the no-neck result of Qing-Tian \cite{QT} to show that there is no neck during blowing up for the $n$-harmonic flow as $t\to\infty$. As an application of the no-neck result, we settle a conjecture of Hungerb\"uhler \cite…
