چکیده

For the Schrödinger flow from R2 × R+ to the 2-sphere S2, it is not known if finite energy solutions can blow up in finite time. We study equivariant solutions whose energy is near the energy of the family of equivariant harmonic maps. We prove that such solutions remain close to the harmonic maps until the blowup time (if any), and that they blow up if and only if the length scale of the nearest harmonic map goes to 0. c © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Asymptotic Stability of Harmonic Maps under the Schrödinger Flow

For Schrödinger maps fromR2×R+ to the 2-sphere S2, it is not known if finite energy solutions can form singularities (blow up) in finite time. We consider equivariant solutions with energy near the energy of the two-parameter family of equivariant harmonic maps. We prove that if the topological degree of the map is at least four, blowup does not occur, and global solutions converge (in a disper...

Repulsion and quantization in almost - harmonic maps , and asymptotics of the harmonic map flow

We present an analysis of bounded-energy low-tension maps between 2-spheres. By deriving sharp estimates for the ratio of length scales on which bubbles of opposite orientation develop, we show that we can establish a ‘quantization estimate’ which constrains the energy of the map to lie near to a discrete energy spectrum. One application is to the asymptotics of the harmonic map flow; we find u...

Asymptotic Stability , Concentration , and Oscillation in Harmonic Map Heat - Flow , Landau - Lifshitz , and Schrödinger Maps on R 2

We consider the Landau-Lifshitz equations of ferromagnetism (including the harmonic map heat-flow and Schrödinger flow as special cases) for degree m equivariant maps from R2 to S2. If m ≥ 3, we prove that near-minimal energy solutions converge to a harmonic map as t → ∞ (asymptotic stability), extending previous work (Gustafson et al., Duke Math J 145(3), 537–583, 2008) down to degree m = 3. D...
