The author gives an alternative and simple proof of the global existence of smooth solutions to the Cauchy problem for wave maps from the 1+2-dimensional Minkowski space to an arbitrary compact smooth Riemannian manifold without boundary,…

We consider radially symmetric, energy critical wave maps from (1 + 2)-dimensional Minkowski space into the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^m$, $m \geq 1$, and prove global regularity and scattering for classical smooth data of finite energy. In…

The Cauchy problem for harmonic maps from Minkowski space with its standard flat metric to a certain non-constant curvature Lorentzian 2-metric is studied. The target manifold is distinguished by the fact that the Euler-Lagrange equation…

These are notes on seminal work of Freed, and subsequent developments, on the curvature properties of (Sobolev Lie) groups of maps from a Riemannian manifold into a compact Lie group. We are mainly interested in critical cases which are…

Let U be a real form of a complex semisimple Lie group, and tau, sigma, a pair of commuting involutions on U. This data corresponds to a reflective submanifold of a symmetric space, U/K. We define an associated integrable system, and…

In this paper, we develop a loop group description of harmonic maps $\mathcal{F}: M \rightarrow G/K$ ``of finite uniton type", from a Riemann surface $M$ into inner symmetric spaces of compact or non-compact type. This develops work of…

In this article, we study compactifications of homogeneous spaces coming from equivariant, open embeddings into a generalized flag manifold $G/P$. The key to this approach is that in each case $G/P$ is the homogeneous model for a parabolic…

In this paper we present in detail the numerical solution of the conformally invariant wave equation on top of a fixed background space-time corresponding to two different cases: i) 1+1 Minkowski space-time in Cartesian coordinates and ii)…

We construct the 1- and 2-point integrable maps (B\"acklund transformations) for the symmetric Lagrange top. We show that the Lagrange top has the same algebraic Poisson structure that belongs to the $sl(2)$ Gaudin magnet. The 2-point map…

Let $M$ be a compact Riemannian homogeneous space (e.g. a Euclidean sphere). We prove existence of a global weak solution of the stochastic wave equation \mathbf D_t\partial_tu=\sum_{k=1}^d\mathbf…

We consider the 1-harmonic flow of maps from a bounded domain into a submanifold of a Euclidean space, i.e. the gradient flow of the total variation functional restricted to maps taking values in the manifold. We restrict ourselves to…

The 1-d Schrodinger flow on 2-sphere, the Gauss-Codazzi equation for flat Lagrangian submanifolds in C^n, and the space-time monopole equation are all examples of geometric soliton equations. The linear systems with a spectral parameter…

Let $G$ be a linear connected non-compact real simple Lie group and let $K\subset G$ be a maximal compact subgroup of $G$. Suppose that the centre of $K$ isomorphic to $\mathbb{S}^1$ so that $G/K$ is a global Hermitian symmetric space. Let…

A moving frame formulation of geometric non-stretching flows of curves in the Riemannian symmetric spaces $Sp(n+1)/Sp(1)\times Sp(n)$ and $SU(2n)/Sp(n)$ is used to derive two bi-Hamiltonian hierarchies of symplectically-invariant soliton…

We prove existence of a countable family of spherically symmetric self-similar wave maps from 3+1 Minkowski spacetime into the 3-sphere. These maps can be viewed as excitations of the ground state wave map found previously by Shatah. The…

We study numerically the Cauchy problem for equivariant wave maps from 3+1 Minkowski spacetime into the 3-sphere. On the basis of numerical evidence combined with stability analysis of self-similar solutions we formulate two conjectures.…

Wave maps (or Lorentzian-harmonic maps) from a $1+1$-dimensional Lorentz space into the $2$-sphere are associated to constant negative Gaussian curvature surfaces in Euclidean 3-space via the Gauss map, which is harmonic with respect to the…

We consider the equivariant wave maps equation $\mathbb{R}^{1+2} \to \mathbb{S}^2$, in all equivariance classes $k \in \mathbb{N}$. We prove that every finite energy solution resolves, continuously in time, into a superposition of…

We consider two-dimensional inviscid irrotational flow in a two layer fluid under the effects of gravity and surface tension. The upper fluid is bounded above by a rigid lid, and the lower fluid is bounded below by a rigid bottom. We use a…

A homogeneous Riemannian space $(M= G/H,g)$ is called a geodesic orbit space (shortly, GO-space) if any geodesic is an orbit of one-parameter subgroup of the isometry group $G$. We study the structure of compact GO-spaces and give some…
