Harmonic maps with prescribed singularities and applications in general relativity

Abstract

This paper presents a general existence and uniqueness result for harmonic maps with prescribed singularities into non-positively curved targets, and surveys a number of applications to general relativity. It is based on a talk delivered by the author at The 11th Mathematical Society of Japan Seasonal Institute, The Role of Metrics in the Theory of Partial Differential Equations.
