Harmonic maps from $\mathbb{R}^2$ to $\mathbb{S}^n$ for $n>2.$

I have been recently reading the following paper about harmonic maps, where the authors prove the non-degeneracy of harmonic maps from $\mathbb{R}^2\to \mathbb{S}^2$. In their analysis they make use o …

Parabolic smoothing for semilinear PDE

Consider the semilinear energy-critical parabolic PDE in $\mathbb{R}^3$ \begin{align} \partial_t u &= \Delta u + |u|^{4/(n-2)}u = \Delta u + u^5\\ u(0,x) &= u_0\in \smash{\dot{H}}^1(\mathbb{R}^n). \en …

Hölder Gradient Estimates for Linear Elliptic Equations in higher dimensions

I was looking at Theorem 12.4 of Gilbarg and Trudinger's Elliptic partial differential equations of second order (MR1814364, Zbl 1042.35002): Theorem 12.4. Let $u$ be a bounded $C^2(\Omega)$ solution …

Comparison Principle for Courant Nodal Domain Theorem

Recall that Courant's Nodal domain gives an upper bound on the number of nodal domains of the $k$-th eigenfunction. I was wondering if it is possible to deduce some relation between the number of noda …

Convergence of metric implies convergence of eigenvalues?

Consider the metric $g_\varepsilon=d\theta^2 + \varepsilon^2 \sin(\theta)^2 \, d\varphi^2$ on the hemisphere $S^2_+.$ I had two naive questions: Does $g_\varepsilon$ converge to the flat metric on th …

Poincare inequality on the hemisphere

Background: Let $\mathbb{S}^2_+$ be the hemisphere. Then we know that for $f:\mathbb{S}^2_+\to \mathbb{R}$ satisfying (when written in coordinates) $\int_{0}^{2\pi}\int_{0}^{\pi/2}f(r,\theta)\sin(r)dr …

What is an analogous version of the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck process on Riemannian manifolds?

Recall that the Ornstein–Uhlenbeck (OU) process in $\mathbb{R}^d$ is defined by the following SDE, $$ d Z_t=\frac{-1}{2} Z_t d t+d W_t, \quad t \geqslant 0 $$ where $\left(W_t\right)_{t \geqslant 0}$ …
