ON f -BI-HARMONIC MAPS BETWEEN RIEMANNIAN MANIFOLDS

A. Both bi-harmonic map and f -harmonic map have nice physical motivation and applications. In this paper, by combination of these two harmonic maps, we introduce and study f -bi-harmonic maps as the critical points of the f -bi-energy functional 1 2 ∫ M f |τ(φ)| dvg. This class of maps generalizes both concepts of harmonic maps and biharmonic maps. We first derive the f -biharmonic map ...

Stability of F-biharmonic maps

This paper studies some properties of F-biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds. By considering the first variation formula of the F-bienergy functional, F-biharmonicity of conformal maps are investigated. Moreover, the second variation formula for F-biharmonic maps is obtained. As an application, instability and nonexistence theorems for F-biharmonic maps are given.

Biharmonic Maps between Doubly Warped Product Manifolds

In this paper biharmonic maps between doubly warped product manifolds are studied. We show that the inclusion maps of Riemannian manifolds B and F into the doubly warped product f B ×b F can not be proper biharmonic maps. Also we analyze the conditions for the biharmonicity of projections f B ×b F → B and f B ×b F → F , respectively. Some characterizations for non-harmonic biharmonic maps are g...

Biharmonic Maps into Sol and Nil Spaces

In this paper, we study biharmonic maps into Sol and Nil spaces, two model spaces of Thurston's 3-dimensional geometries. We characterize non-geodesic biharmonic curves in Sol space and prove that there exists no non-geodesic biharmonic helix in Sol space. We also show that a linear map from a Eu-clidean space into Sol or Nil space is biharmonic if and only if it is a harmonic map, and give a c...

f -BIHARMONIC MAPS BETWEEN DOUBLY WARPED PRODUCT MANIFOLDS

A. In this paper, by applying the first variation formula of f -bi-energy given in [OND], we study f -biharmonic maps between doubly warped product manifolds M ×(μ,λ) N. Under imposing existence condition concerning proper f -biharmonic maps, we derive f -biharmonicity’s characteristic equations for the inclusion maps: iy0 : (M, g) → (M ×(μ,λ) N, ḡ), ix0 : (N, h) → (M ×(μ,λ) N, ḡ) and th...
