Dirac-harmonic maps are a mathematical version (with commuting variables only) of the solutions of the field equations of the non-linear supersymmetric sigma model of quantum field theory. We explain this structure, including the appropriate boundary conditions, in a geometric framework. The main results of our paper are concerned with the analytic regularity theory of such Dirac-harmonic maps. We study Dirac-harmonic maps from a Riemannian surface to an arbitrary compact Riemannian manifold. We...

We study a semilinear equation with derivatives satisfying a null condition on slowly rotating Kerr spacetimes. We prove that given sufficiently small initial data, the solution exists globally in time and decays with a quantitative rate to the trivial solution. The proof uses the robust vector field method. It makes use of the decay properties of the linear wave equation on Kerr spacetime, in particular the improved decay rates in the region $\{r\le \frac{t}{4}\}$.

This paper is devoted to geometric formulation of the regular (resp. strongly regular) Hamiltonian system. The notion of the regularization of the second order Lagrangians is presented. The regularization procedure is applied to concrete example.

In a series of recent papers, Nils Dencker proves that condition $\left(\psi \right)$ implies the local solvability of principal type pseudodifferential operators (with loss of $\frac{3}{2}+ϵ$ derivatives for all positive $ϵ$), verifying the last part of the Nirenberg-Treves conjecture, formulated in 1971. The origin of this question goes back to the Hans Lewy counterexample, published in 1957. In this text, we follow the pattern of Dencker’s papers, and we provide a proof of local solvability with a loss of $\frac{3}{2}$ derivatives.
