Harmonic maps on domains with piecewise Lipschitz continuous metrics

Haigang Li and Changyou Wang

Vol. 264 (2013), No. 1, 125–149
Abstract

We study harmonic maps ,g) (N,h), where Ω n is a bounded domain divided into two pieces, the Riemannian metric g is Lipschitz in each piece, and (N,h) is a closed Riemannian submanifold of k. We prove the partial regularity of stationary harmonic maps, and the global Lipschitz and piecewise C1-regularity of weakly harmonic maps from ,g) to manifolds (N,h) that support convex distance square functions.
