On a noncompact Riemannian manifold $M$, the $L^2$-spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator $\Delta$ sits inside $\mathbb{R}$ (by self-adjointness), either to the left or to the right of $0$ ...

My question is the following: What is the minimum regularity for a continuous loop $\gamma: S^1 \rightarrow M$ in a Riemannian manifold $M$ to have short-time existence for the harmonic map flow in ...

My situation: I am currently trying to understand Uhlenbecks results on the Yang Mills equation. One of the most common notions in this paper is that of an elliptic system or an elliptic boundary ...

Let $M = \mathbb{R}^3 \setminus B_1$ where $B_1$ is the unit ball (equip $M$ with the euclidean metric for simplicity, but it will be replaced by an arbitrary asymptotically flat metric). Let $N: L^2(\...
