Gap Phenomena for p-Harmonic Maps

In this paper, we generalize to p-harmonic maps some gap results known for harmonic maps. In particular, we prove that, under a certain level of energy depending on the curvature of the domain and target manifolds, the only p-harmonic maps are the constant ones. The main tools are Bochner-Weitzenboc...

Zusammenfassung:In this paper, we generalize to p-harmonic maps some gap results known for harmonic maps. In particular, we prove that, under a certain level of energy depending on the curvature of the domain and target manifolds, the only p-harmonic maps are the constant ones. The main tools are Bochner-Weitzenbock and Reilly-type formulas involving the p-Laplace operator. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
