Energy-minimizing mappings of complex projective spaces

From MaRDI portal





The article proves that in all homotopy classes of mappings from complex projective space to Riemannian manifolds, the infimum of the energy is proportional to the infimal area in the homotopy class of mappings of the 2-sphere which represents the induced homomorphism on the second homotopy group. It also establishes a set of optimal lower bounds for a broader range of energy functionals for mappings from real and complex projective space to Riemannian manifolds, and identifies the mappings that meet these limits.
