We prove a quantification result for harmonic maps with free boundary from arbitrary Riemannian surfaces into the unit ball of ${\mathbb R}^{n+1}$ with bounded energy. This generalizes results obtained by Da Lio on the disc.
Given a 3-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$, we prove that if $(Φ_k)$ is a sequence of Willmore spheres (or more generally area-constrained Willmore spheres), having Willmore energy bounded above uniformly strictly by $8 π$, and Hausdorff converging to a point $\bar{p}\in M$, then $Scal(\bar{p})=0$ and $\nabla Scal(\bar{p})=0$ (resp. $\nabla Scal(\bar{p})=0$). Moreover, a suitably rescaled sequence smoothly converges, up to subsequences and reparametrizations, to a round sphere in the euclidean 3-dimensional space. This generalizes previous results of Lamm and Metzger contained in \cite{LM1}-\cite{LM2}. An application to the Hawking mass is also established.
In this paper we prove a uniform estimate for the gradient of the Green function on a closed Riemann surface, independent of its conformal class, and we derive compactness results for immersions with L2-bounded second fundamental form and for riemannian surfaces of uniformly bounded gaussian curvature entropy.
In the present work we establish a quantization result for the angular part of the energy of solu- tions to elliptic linear systems of Schrödinger type with antisymmetric potentials in two dimension. This quantization is a consequence of uniform Lorentz-Wente type estimates in degenerating annuli. We derive from this angular quantization the full energy quantization for general critical points to functionals which are conformally invariant or also for pseudo-holomorphic curves on degenerating Riemann surfaces.
