We consider in dimension four weakly convergent sequences of approximate biharmonic maps to a Riemannian manifold with bi-tension fields bounded in $L^p$ for $p>\frac43$. We prove an energy identity that accounts for the loss of hessian…
Energy identity for harmonic type maps in supercritical dimensions is an important and difficult problem. For sphere-valued harmonic maps, the first breakthrough was achieved by Lin-Rivi\`ere [Duke Math. J. 2002]. In this paper, by adapting…
For the class of approximate harmonic maps $u\in W^{1,2}(\Sigma,N)$ from a closed Riemmanian surface $(\Sigma,g)$ to a compact Riemannian manifold $(N, h)$, we show that (i) the so-called energy identity holds for weakly convergent…
In this paper, we study the relaxed energy for biharmonic maps from a $m$-dimensional domain into spheres. By an approximation method, we prove the existence of a minimizer of the relaxed energy of the Hessian energy, and that the minimizer…
We prove the energy identity for min-max sequences of the Sacks-Uhlenbeck and the biharmonic approximation of harmonic maps from surfaces into general target manifolds. The proof relies on Hopf-differential type estimates for the two…
Every harmonic map is an intrinsic bi-harmonic map as an absolute minimizer of the intrinsic bi-energy functional, therefore intrinsic bi-harmonic map and its heat flow are more geometrically natural to study, but they are also considerably…
Let $u_n$ be a sequence of mappings from a closed Riemannian surface $M$ to a general Riemannian manifold $N$. If $u_n$ satisfies \beno \sup_{n}\big(\|\nabla u_n\|_{L^2(M)}+\|\tau(u_n)\|_{L^{p}(M)}\big)\leq \Lambda\quad \text{for…
In this article, we show that sequences of $(n+\alpha)$-harmonic maps with a free boundary in $\mathbb S^{d-1}$, where $\alpha$ is a parameter tending to zero, converge to a bubble tree. For such sequences, we prove in detail that the…
For a sequence of coupled fields $\{(\phi_n,\psi_n)\}$ from a compact Riemann surface $M$ with smooth boundary to a general compact Riemannian manifold with uniformly bounded energy and satisfying the Dirac-harmonic system up to some…
In this paper we find analogues for $\varepsilon$-harmonic maps to the generalised energy identity and the existence of geodesic necks result discovered by Yuxiang Li and Youde Wang for $\alpha$-harmonic maps. In particular there exist…
In this paper we consider sequences $u_j:B_2\subseteq M\to N$ of stationary harmonic maps between smooth Riemannian manifolds with uniformly bounded energy $E[u_j]\equiv \int |\nabla u_j|^2\leq \Lambda$ . After passing to a subsequence it…
A homogenization result for a family of integral energies is presented, where the fields are subjected to periodic first order oscillating differential constraints in divergence form. The work is based on the theory of A -quasiconvexity…
In this article, we prove energy quantization for approximate (intrinsic and extrinsic) biharmonic maps into spheres where the approximate map is in $L \log L$. Moreover, we demonstrate that if the $L\log L$ norm of the approximate maps…
We construct a closed Riemannian manifold $(N,h)$ and a sequence of $\alpha$-harmonic maps from $S^2$ into $N$ with uniformly bounded energy such that the energy identity for this sequence is not true.
We show that in all homotopy classes of mappings from complex projective space to Riemannian manifolds, the infimum of the energy is proportional to the infimal area in the homotopy class of mappings of the 2-sphere which represents the…
4-harmonic and ES-4-harmonic maps are two generalizations of the well-studied harmonic map equation which are both given by a nonlinear elliptic partial differential equation of order eight. Due to the large number of derivatives it is very…
The aim of this note is to discuss in more detail the Pohozaev-type identities that have been recently obtained by the author, Paul Laurain and Tristan Rivi\`ere in the framework of half-harmonic maps defined either on $R$ or on the sphere…
Using Hilbert's criterion, we consider the stress-energy tensor associated to the bienergy functional. We show that it derives from a variational problem on metrics and exhibit the peculiarity of dimension four. First, we use this tensor to…
The identity map of an Einstein manifold is a critical point of both the classical energy functional and the conformal-bienergy functional. In this paper, we investigate the conformal-biharmonic stability of the identity map of compact…
In this note we prove the existence of two proper biharmonic maps between the Euclidean ball of dimension bigger than four and Euclidean spheres of appropriate dimensions. We will also show that, in low dimensions, both maps are unstable…
