Existence and Stability of α−Harmonic Maps

In this paper, we first study the α−energy functional, Euler-Lagrange operator, and α-stress-energy tensor. Second, it is shown that the critical points of the α−energy functional are explicitly related to harmonic maps through conformal deformation. In addition, an α−harmonic map is constructed fro...

description In this paper, we first study the α−energy functional, Euler-Lagrange operator, and α-stress-energy tensor. Second, it is shown that the critical points of the α−energy functional are explicitly related to harmonic maps through conformal deformation. In addition, an α−harmonic map is constructed from any smooth map between Riemannian manifolds under certain assumptions. Next, we determine the conditions under which the fibers of horizontally conformal α−harmonic maps are minimal submanifolds. Then, the stability of any α−harmonic map on Riemannian manifold with nonpositive curvature is studied. Finally, the instability of α−harmonic maps from a compact manifold to a standard unit sphere is investigated.
