This paper is devoted to a third order study of the end-point map in sub-Riemannian geometry. We first prove third order open mapping results for maps from a Banach space into a finite dimensional manifold. In a second step, we compute the third order term in the Taylor expansion of the end-point map and we specialize the abstract theory to the study of length-minimality of sub-Riemannian strictly singular curves. We conclude with the third order analysis of a specific strictly singular extremal that is not length-minimizing.
Using the stress energy tensor, we establish some monotonicity formulae for vector bundle-valued p-forms satisfying the conservation law, provided that the base Riemannian (resp. Kahler) manifolds poss some real (resp. complex) p-exhaustion functions
In this paper, we study the theory of geodesics with respect to the Tanaka-Webster connection in a pseudo-Hermitian manifold, aiming to generalize some comparison results in Riemannian geometry to the case of pseudo-Hermitian geometry. Some Hopf-Rino
We prove several Liouville theorems for F-harmonic maps from some complete Riemannian manifolds by assuming some conditions on the Hessian of the distance function, the degrees of F(t) and the asymptotic behavior of the map at infinity. In particular
String-averaging is an algorithmic structure used when handling a family of operators in situations where the algorithm at hand requires to employ the operators in a specific order. Sequential orderings are well-known and a simultaneous order means t
In this paper, we discuss the general existence theory of Dirac-harmonic maps from closed surfaces via the heat flow for $alpha$-Dirac-harmonic maps and blow-up analysis. More precisely, given any initial map along which the Dirac operator has nontri
