This is in the sequel of authors' paper \cite{LPW} in which we had set up a program to verify rigorously some formal statements associated with the multiple component phase transitions with higher dimensional wells. The main goal here is to…
We survey a variety of results about partially isometric matrices. We focus primarily on results that are distinctly finite-dimensional. For example, we cover a recent solution to the similarity problem for partial isometries. We also…
We prove a regularity theorem for harmonic maps into Teichm\"uller space. More specifically, if $u$ is a harmonic map from a Riemannian domain to the metric completion of Teichm\"uller space with respect to the Weil-Petersson metric, and…
We relate the existence problem of harmonic maps into $S^2$ to the convex geometry of $S^2$. On one hand, this allows us to construct new examples of harmonic maps of degree 0 from compact surfaces of arbitrary genus into $S^2$. On the…
In the case where both the domain and target manifolds are almost Hermitian, we introduce the concept of Hermitian pluriharmonic maps. We prove that any holomorphic or anti-holomorphic map between almost Hermitian manifolds is Hermitian…
In this paper, the theory of harmonic maps is extended. The soliton or traveling wave solutions of Euler's equations of the extended harmonic maps are studied. In certain cases, the chaotic behaviors of these partial equations can be found…
In the past years, the phenomenon of fractional regularity has been addressed for a large class of linear and/or quasilinear differential operators, mostly, in terms of certain Besov spaces. As it turned out, for equations governed by the…
Harmonic maps are important in generating parameterizations for various domains, particularly in two and three dimensions. General extensions of two-dimensional harmonic parameterizations for volumetric parameterizations are known to fail…
We construct explicit examples of $p$-harmonic maps $u:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^N$. These are more irregular than the previously known examples and thus provide new upper bounds for the regularity of $p$-harmonic maps, including the case…
We prove the uniqueness of solutions to Dirichlet problem for p-harmonic maps with images in a small geodesic ball of the target manifold. As a consequence, we show that such maps have Hoelder continuous derivatives. This gives an extension…
We establish an optimal $L^p$-regularity theory for solutions to fourth order elliptic systems with antisymmetric potentials in all supercritical dimensions $n\ge 5$: $$ \Delta^2 u=\Delta(D\cdot\nabla u)+div(E\cdot\nabla…
The matrix completion problem aims to reconstruct a low-rank matrix based on a revealed set of possibly noisy entries. Prior works consider completing the entire matrix with generalization error guarantees. However, the completion accuracy…
In this paper, we establish the lower semicontinuity of the solution mapping and of the approximate solution mapping for parametric fixed point problems under some suitable conditions. As applications, the lower semicontinuity result…
In this paper we continue the investigation of the regularity of the so-called weak $\frac{n}{p}$-harmonic maps in the critical case. These are critical points of the following nonlocal energy \[ {\mathcal{L}}_s(u)=\int_{\mathbb{R}^n}| (…
We study convexity of image of a general multidimensional quadratic map. We split the full image into two parts by an appropriate hyperplane such that one part is compact, and formulate a sufficient condition for convexity of the compact…
We prove a general perturbation theorem that can be used to obtain pairs of nontrivial solutions of a wide range of local and nonlocal nonhomogeneous elliptic problems. Applications to critical $p$-Laplacian problems, $p$-Laplacian problems…
In this paper, the problem of partial stabilization of nonlinear systems along a given trajectory is considered. This problem is treated within the framework of stability of a family of sets. Sufficient conditions for the asymptotic…
This paper explores recent progress related to constraint maps. Building on the exposition in [14], our goal is to provide a clear and accessible account of some of the more intricate arguments behind the main results in this work. Along…
Conformal mapping has been applied mostly to harmonic functions, i.e. solutions of Laplace's equation. In this paper, it is noted that some other equations are also conformally invariant and thus equally well suited for conformal mapping in…
We propose to extend ``invertibility'' to ``regularity'' for categories in general abstract algebraic manner. Higher regularity conditions and ``semicommutative'' diagrams are introduced. Distinction between commutative and…
