Regularity of Dirac-harmonic maps

For any n-dimensional compact spin Riemannian manifold M with a given spin structure and a spinor bundle ΣM , and any compact Riemannian manifold N , we show an ǫ-regularity theorem for weakly Dirac-harmonic maps (φ, ψ) : M ⊗ΣM → N ⊗ φ∗TN . As a consequence, any weakly Dirac-harmonic map is proven to be smooth when n = 2. A weak convergence theorem for approximate Dirac-harmonic maps is establi...

Regularity for weakly Dirac-harmonic maps to hypersurfaces

We prove that a weakly Dirac-harmonic map from a Riemann spin surface to a compact hypersurface N ⊂ R is smooth. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 58J05, 53C27.

A Regularity Theory of Biharmonic Maps

In this article we prove the regularity of weakly biharmonic maps of domains in Euclidean four space into spheres, as well as the corresponding partial regularity result of stationary biharmonic maps of higher-dimensional domains into spheres. c © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Introduction In this article we consider the notion of biharmonic maps and begin an analytic study of the regularity pro...
