Wei Zhang Chairman, Department Committee on Graduate Theses 2 Convergence of Complete Ricci-flat Manifolds by Jiewon Park Submitted to the Department of Mathematics on April 17, 2020, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Mathematics Abstract This thesis is focused on the convergence at infinity of complete Ricci flat manifolds. In the first part of this thesis, we will give a natural way to identify between two scales, potentially arbitrarily far apart, in the case when a tangent cone at infinity has smooth cross section. The identification map is given as the gradient flow of a solution to an elliptic equation. We use an estimate of Colding-Minicozzi of a functional that measures the distance to the tangent cone. In the second part of this thesis, we prove a matrix Harnack inequality for the Laplace equation on manifolds with suitable curvature and volume growth assumptions, which is a pointwise estimate for the integrand of the aforementioned functional. This result provides an elliptic analogue of matrix Harnack inequalities for the heat equation or geometric flows. Thesis Supervisor: Tobias Holck Colding Title: Cecil and Ida Green Distinguished Professor 3 4 Acknowledgments First and foremost I would like to thank my advisor Tobias Colding for his continuous guidance and encouragement, and for suggesting problems to work on.

Second, we prove the uniqueness for energy decreasing weak solutions of the har- monic map heat flow from the unit open disk into a closed manifold, given any H' initial data and boundary data, which is the restriction of the initial data on the boundary of the disk.

Although intuition would tell you that it should do this, there is no way to physically test the infinite number of possible variations that could be made to the shape of the wire in order to provide mathematical proof, Minicozzi says. A top geometric analyst Answering Plateau's question—and addressing subsequent conjectures on the properties of complex minimal surfaces—has kept mathematicians busy ever since. The most notable of these researchers in recent years have been Minicozzi and his colleague Tobias Colding, the MIT mathematics professor William Minicozzi in his Cecil and Ida Green Distinguished Professor of office at Building E17.

    RIGIDITY OF VECTOR VALUED HARMONIC MAPS OF LINEAR GROWTH SHAOSAI HUANG AND BINGWANG Abstract. Consider vector valued harmonic maps of at most linear growth, defined on a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold with non-negative Ricci curvature. For the norm square of the pull-back of the target volume form by such maps, we report a strong maximum principle, and equalities among its supremum, its asymptotic average, and its large-time heat evolution. 1. Introduction We fix a complete, non-compact Riemannian manifold (M, g) with non-negative Ricci curvature. Harmonic functions on such manifolds have been an important subject of inves- tigation in geometric analysis (see, among others, [24], [14],[15], [18], [13],[16],[17],[10], [11], and [6], etc.). Among all harmonic functions, those of at most linear growth are especially interesting, as they reveal the properties of the tangent cones at infinity of M, through the work of Cheeger-Colding-Minicozzi II [6]. Vector valued harmonic maps of at most linear growth are also of central imporance in studying the structure of the Gromov-Hausdorff limits of a sequence of Riemannian manifolds with Ricci curvature uniformly bounded below, as signified in the series of work by Cheeger-Colding (see [2], [3], [4], and [5]), and notably the recent resolution of the codimension-4 conjecture by Cheeger-Naber [8]. Our subject of study is a vector valued harmonic map of at most linear growth. To fix the terminologies, we call a function u : (Mm, x ) (Rn, 0) (n m) a vector valued 0 → ≤ harmonic map if each component of u is a harmonic function uα : M R (α = 1, , n), → ··· and call it pointed if u(x0) = 0.

This functional is a close relative of the scalar Ginzburg-Landau functional J(u) = f IVu12 + W(u), where W(u) = (1 - u 2 )2 /2 is a standard double-well potential. According to a famous conjecture of De Giorgi, global critical points of J that are bounded and monotone in one direction have level sets that are hyperplanes, at least up to dimension 8. Recently, Del Pino, Kowalczyk and Wei gave an intricate fixed-point-argument construction of a counterexample in dimension 9, whose level sets "follow" the entire minimal non-planar graph, built by Bombieri, De Giorgi and Giusti (BdGG).
