چکیده

We show that wave maps φ from two-dimensional Minkowski spaceR to hyperbolic spacesH are globally smooth in time if the initial data is smooth, conditionally on some reasonable claims concerning the local theory of such wave maps, as well as the self-similar and travelling (or stationary solutions); we will address these claims in the sequels [60], [61], [62] to this paper. Following recent work in critical dispersive equations, the strategy is to reduce matters to the study of an almost periodic maximal Cauchy development in the energy class. We then repeatedly analyse the stress-energy tensor of this development (as in [57]) to extract either a self-similar, travelling, or degenerate non-trivial energy class solution to the wave maps equation. We will then rule out such solutions in the sequels to this paper, establishing the desired global regularity result for wave maps.

Global Regularity of Wave Maps v. Large Data Local Wellposedness and Perturbation Theory in the Energy Class

Using the harmonic map heat flow and the function spaces of Tataru [27] and the author [20], we establish a large data local well-posedness result in the energy class for wave maps from two-dimensional Minkowski space R to hyperbolic spaces H . This is one of the five claims required in [24] to prove global regularity for such wave maps.

Global Regularity of Wave Maps Iv. Absence of Stationary or Self-similar Solutions in the Energy Class

Using the harmonic map heat flow, we construct an energy class Ḣ1 for wave maps φ from two-dimensional Minkowski space R to hyperbolic spaces H, and then show (conditionally on a large data well-posedness claim for such wave maps) that no stationary, travelling, self-similar, or degenerate wave maps exist in this energy class. These results form three of the five claims required in [18] to prov...

In this article we consider large data Wave-Maps from R into a compact Riemannian manifold (M, g), and we prove that regularity and dispersive bounds persist as long as a certain type of bulk (non-dispersive) concentration is absent. This is a companion to our concurrent article [21], which together with the present work establishes a full regularity theory for large data Wave-Maps.
