Minimizing energy among homotopic maps

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2004, Issue 30, Page 1599-1611, 2004., 2004
We study an energy minimizing sequence {ui} in a fixed homotopy class of smooth maps from a 3‐manifold. After deriving an approximate monotonicity property for {ui} and a continuous version of the Luckhaus lemma (Simon, 1996) on S2, we show that, passing to a subsequence, {ui} converges strongly in W1,2 topology wherever there is small energy ...

Local solvability of a constrainedgradient system of total variation

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 2004, Issue 8, Page 651-682, 2004., 2004
A 1‐harmonic map flow equation, a gradient system of total variation where values of unknowns are constrained in a compact manifold in ℝN, is formulated by the use of subdifferentials of a singular energy—the total variation. An abstract convergence result is established to show that solutions of approximate problem converge to a solution of the limit ...

Families of (1, 2)‐symplectic metrics on full flag manifolds

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 29, Issue 11, Page 651-664, 2002., 2002
We obtain new families of (1, 2)‐symplectic invariant metrics on the full complex flag manifolds F(n). For n ≥ 5, we characterize n − 3 different n‐dimensional families of (1, 2)‐symplectic invariant metrics on F(n). Each of these families corresponds to a different class of nonintegrable invariant almost complex structures on F(n).

Harmonicity of horizontally conformal maps and spectrum of the Laplacian

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 30, Issue 12, Page 709-715, 2002., 2002
We discuss the harmonicity of horizontally conformal maps and their relations with the spectrum of the Laplacian. We prove that if Φ : M → N is a horizontally conformal map such that the tension field is divergence free, then Φ is harmonic. Furthermore, if N is noncompact, then Φ must be constant.

Harmonic close‐to‐convex mappings

open access: yesInternational Journal of Stochastic Analysis, Volume 15, Issue 1, Page 23-28, 2002., 2002
Sufficient coefficient conditions for complex functions to be close‐to‐convex harmonic or convex harmonic are given. Construction of close‐to‐convex harmonic functions is also studied by looking at transforms of convex analytic functions. Finally, a convolution property for harmonic functions is discussed.

Biharmonic maps on V‐manifolds

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 27, Issue 8, Page 477-484, 2001., 2001
We generalize biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds into the case of the domain being V‐manifolds. We obtain the first and second variations of biharmonic maps on V‐manifolds. Since a biharmonic map from a compact V‐manifold into a Riemannian manifold of nonpositive curvature is harmonic, we construct a biharmonic non‐harmonic map into a sphere.

Existence of multiple critical points for an asymptotically quadratic functional with applications

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, Volume 1, Issue 3, Page 277-289, 1996., 1996
Morse theory for isolated critical points at infinity is used for the existence of multiple critical points for an asymptotically quadratic functional. Applications are also given for the existence of multiple nontrivial periodic solutions of asymptotically Hamiltonian systems.

Some results and examples of the biharmonic maps with potential

open access: yes, 2018
In this paper, we will study the class of biharmonic maps with potential, in the particular case represented by conformal maps between equidimensional manifolds. Some examples are constructed in particular cases (Euclidean space and sphere).

A study of the inextensible flows of tube-like surfaces associated with focal curves in Galilean 3-space G₃

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we study inextensible flows of focal curves associated with tube-like surfaces in Galilean 3-space G₃. We give some characterizations for curvature and torsion of focal curves associated with tube-like surfaces in Galilean 3-space G₃ ...
