For a weakly stationary harmonic map $(u,v)$ from a smooth bounded open domain $\\Omega\\subset\\R^m$ to a Lorentzian manifold with Dirichlet boundary condition, we prove that it is smooth outside a closed set whose $(m-2)$-dimension Hausdorff measure is zero. Moreover, if the target manifold $N$ does not admit any harmonic sphere $S^l$, $l=2,...,m-1$, we will show $(u,v)$ is smooth.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-04-27T17:36:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "lorentzian manifold", "riemannian manifold", "weakly stationary harmonic map", "dimension hausdorff measure", "smooth bounded open domain" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
