The purpose of this paper has twofold. The first is to prove a unicity theorem for meromorphic mappings of a complete K\"{a}hler manifold M in P^n(C) sharing few hypersurfaces. The second is to give a unicity theorem for the case of…

Magnetic monopole solutions naturally arise in the context of spontaneously broken gauge theories. When the unbroken symmetry includes a non-Abelian subgroup, investigation of the low-energy monopole dynamics by means of the moduli space…

We describe for any Riemannian manifold a certain infinitesimal neighbourhood of the diagonal. Semi-conformal maps are analyzed as those that preserve such neighbourhoods; harmonic maps are analyzed as those that preserve mirror image…

We prove that polyharmonic maps of arbitrary order from complete nonparabolic Riemannian manifolds to arbitrary Riemannian manifolds must be harmonic if certain smallness and integrability conditions hold.

We study subelliptic biharmonic maps, i.e. smooth maps from a compact strictly pseudoconvex CR manifold M into a Riemannian manifold N which are critical points of a certain bienergy functional. We show that a map is subelliptic biharmonic…

Let A be a finite-dimensional associative algebra and $\phi$ a symmetric linear function on $A$. In this note, we will show that the pseudotrace maps are obtained as special cases of well-known symmetric linear functions on the endomorphism…

In this paper, we address several interconnected problems in the theory of harmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. First, we present necessary background and establish one of the main results of the paper: a criterion characterizing…

H-holomorphic maps are a parameter version of J-holomorphic maps into contact manifolds. They have arisen in efforts to prove the existence of higher--genus holomorphic open book decompositions and efforts to prove the existence of finite…

Given an autohomeomorphism on an ordered topological space or its subspace, we show that it is sometimes possible to introduce a new topology-compatible order on that space so that the same map is monotonic with respect to the new ordering.…

This paper unites the gauge-theoretic and hyperbolic-geometric perspectives on the asymptotic geometry of the character variety of SL(2,C) representations of a surface group. Specifically, we find an asymptotic correspondence between the…

A brief review of the harmonic superspace approach to the construction of $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric higher spin theories is given. We define off-shell analytic harmonic gauge potentials of $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric higher-spin…

We apply the technique of Hamiltonian reduction for the construction of three-dimensional ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric mechanics specified by the presence of a Dirac monopole. For this purpose we take the conventional ${\cal N}=4$…

We consider principal fibre bundles with a given connection and construct almost complex structures on the total space if the adjoint bundle is isomorphic to the tangent bundle of the base. We derive the integrability condition. If the…

We construct and study a natural homeomorphism between the moduli space of polynomial cubic differentials of degree d on the complex plane and the space of projective equivalence classes of oriented convex polygons with d+3 vertices. This…

We study a new set of coupled field equations motivated by the non-linear supersymmetric sigma model of quantum field theory. These equations couple a map into a Riemannian manifold controlled by a harmonic map like action with a spinor…

By analogy to the theory of harmonic fields on the complex plane, we build the theory of wave-like fields on the plane of double variable. We construct the hyperbolic analogues of point vortices, sources, vortice-sources and their…

On non-K\"ahler manifolds the notion of harmonic maps is modified to that of Hermitian harmonic maps in order to be compatible with the complex structure. The resulting semilinear elliptic system is {\it not} in divergence form. The case of…

We consider the low-energy dynamics of a pair of distinct fundamental monopoles that arise in the $N=4$ supersymmetric $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory broken to $U(1)\times U(1)$. Both the long distance interactions and the short distance…

In this paper, we established the existence and uniqueness of the spherically symmetric monopole solutions in SO(5) gauge theory with Higgs scalar fields in the vector representation in six-dimensional Minkowski space-time and obtain sharp…

We study the symplectic geometry of the moduli spaces $M_r=M_r(\s^3)$ of closed n-gons with fixed side-lengths in the 3-sphere. We prove that these moduli spaces have symplectic structures obtained by reduction of the fusion product of $n$…
