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 regularity properties of solutions to the Davey-Stewartson system. It is shown that for initial data in a Sobolev space, the nonlinear part of the solution flow resides in a smoother space than the initial data…

We consider the Cauchy problem associated to the recently derived higher order hamiltonian model for unidirectional water waves and prove global existence for given data in the Sobolev space $H^s$, $s\geq 1$. We also prove an ill-posedness…

Let $\Omega\subset R^n$ be a bounded convex domain with $n\ge2$. Suppose that $A$ is uniformly elliptic and belongs to $W^{1,n}$ when $n\ge 3$ or $W^{1,q}$ for some $q>2$ when $n=2$. For $1<p<\infty$, we build up a global second order…

We prove local in time well-posedness for the Zakharov system in two space dimensions with large initial data in L^2 x H^{-1/2} x H^{-3/2}. This is the space of optimal regularity in the sense that the data-to-solution map fails to be…

In this paper we prove global regularity for the full water waves system in 3 dimensions for small data, under the influence of both gravity and surface tension. This problem presents essential difficulties which were absent in all of the…

In this paper, we prove that the Schr\"odinger map flows from $\Bbb R^d$ with $d\ge 3$ to compact K\"ahler manifolds with small initial data in critical Sobolev spaces are global. This is a companion work of our previous paper [23] where…

This paper is devoted to the investigation of long-time behaviour of solutions to wave equations with quadratic nonlinearity and cubic Dirac equations with Hartree-type nonlinearity. We consider the nonlinearity here with enough simplicity…

In this paper we study the global regularity for the solution to the Dirichlet problem of the equation of minimal graphs over a convex domain in hyperbolic spaces. We find that the global regularity depends only on the convexity of the…

In this paper, we discuss two well-known open problems in the regularity theory for nonlinear, conformally invariant elliptic systems in dimensions $n\ge 3$, with a critical nonlinearity: $H$-systems (equations of hypersurfaces of…

We identify the wave maps type nonlinearities of incompressible Hookean elastodynamics equations in Lagerangian coordinates, and iterate them in the adapted $U^2$-type spaces to prove the small data global well-posedness in the critical…

In this article we consider large data Wave-Maps from $\mathbb{R}^{2+1}$ into a compact Riemannian manifold $(\mathcal{M},g)$, and we prove that regularity and dispersive bounds persist as long as a certain type of bulk (non-dispersive)…

n this paper, we revisit the existence of global weak solutions of wave maps from $\R^n$ into the sphere $\mathbb{S}^{L-1}$, $\Box u\perp T_u \mathbb{S}^{L-1}$, by establishing it as a singular limit of maps from $\R^n\times \R_+$ to…

We consider the global regularity problem for defocusing nonlinear wave systems $$ \Box u = (\nabla_{{\bf R}^m} F)(u) $$ on Minkowski spacetime ${\bf R}^{1+d}$ with d'Alambertian $\Box := -\partial_t^2 + \sum_{i=1}^d \partial_{x_i}^2$, the…
