The property of compactness of the quasi-linearly perturbed
harmonic-map equation
G. Yu. Kokarev M. V. Lomonosov Moscow State University
Abstract:
For maps $u\colon M\to M'$ of closed Riemannian manifolds a study
is made of the quasi-linearly perturbed harmonic-map equation
$$
\tau(u)(x)=\mathsf G(x,u(x))\cdot du(x)+\mathsf g(x,u(x)), \qquad
x\in M.
$$
In the case of a non-positively curved manifold $M'$ and a small linear part of the perturbation $\mathsf G$ it is proved that the space of classical solutions in a fixed homotopy class is compact. The proof is based on a uniform estimate for the norm of the differential of a solution of the perturbed equation in terms of its energy and the $C^1$-norms of $\mathsf G$ and $\mathsf g$. The crux of this analysis is
an inequality called the monotonicity property.
