Rigidity in the Harmonic Map Heat Flow
We establish various uniformity properties of the harmonic map heat ow, including uniform convergence in L 2 exponentially as t ! 1, and uniqueness of the positions of bubbles at innnite time. Our hypotheses are that the ow is between 2-spheres, and that the limit map and any bubbles share the same orientation.
متن کاملHarmonic fields on mixed Riemannian-Lorentzian manifolds
The extended projective disc is Riemannian at ordinary points, Lorentzian at ideal points, and singular on the absolute. Harmonic fields on this metric can be interpreted as the hodograph image of extremal surfaces in Minkowski 3-space. This suggests an approach to generalized Plateau problems in 3-dimensional space-time via Hodge theory on the extended projective disc. Boundary-value problems ...
متن کاملFormal Asymptotics of Bubbling in the Harmonic Map Heat Flow
The harmonic map heat flow is a model for nematic liquid crystals and also has origins in geometry. We present an analysis of the asymptotic behaviour of singularities arising in this flow for a special class of solutions which generalises a known (radially symmetric) reduction. Specifically, the rate at which blowup occurs is investigated in settings with certain symmetries using the method of...
متن کاملThe Scalar Curvature Flow in Lorentzian Manifolds
We prove the existence of closed hypersurfaces of prescribed scalar curvature in globally hyperbolic Lorentzian manifolds provided there are barriers.
متن کاملGlobal Existence and Uniqueness of Minimal Surfaces in Lorentzian Manifolds of Very Bounded Geometry
In this note a proof is given for local existence and uniqueness of minimal surfaces with the topology of the halfplane respectively a cylinder of Lorentzian type with values in certain Lorentzian manifolds for given initial values up to the first derivatives. Global existence is proved for the case that the target manifold is diffeomorphic to Rn.
