Let $n>2$. We construct a map $U\in W^{1,n}(B^n,\mathbb{R}^{n+2})$ that is discontinuous at the origin and smooth on the punctured ball $B^n \setminus \{0\}$, together with an antisymmetric potential $\Omega\in L^n(B^n,so(n+2)\otimes\mathbb{R}^n)$ such that $-\mathrm{Div}(|\nabla U|^{n-2}\nabla U)=\Omega\cdot |\nabla U|^{n-2}\nabla U$ in $D'(B^n)$. This gives a negative answer to a regularity question posed by Rivi\`ere. Our potential admits the Lorentz-space regularity $\Omega \in \bigcap_{q>2}L^{(n,q)} \setminus L^{(n,2)}$. In addition for given $1<p<\infty$ we can enforce $\nabla U \in L^{(n,p)}$ but $\nabla U \notin L^{(n,1)}$. The construction does not give a counterexample to regularity for weakly $n$-harmonic maps or for higher-dimensional $H$-systems. The example was generated by ChatGPT 5.6 Sol on August 5, 2026. The work itself was written by the author and thoroughly reviewed to ensure its correctness.
Let $N\ge 2$ and $1<p<N$. Let $H$ be a possibly non-reversible Minkowski norm on $\mathbb{R}^N$, with $H\in C^2(\mathbb{R}^N\setminus\{0\})$ and $D^2(H^2/2)$ uniformly positive definite away from the origin. We classify all nonnegative local weak solutions $u\in W^{1,p}_{\rm loc}(\mathbb{R}^N)$ of \[ -\operatorname{div...
Let $1 \leq q \le 2$ and denote by $2 \leq q'$ its corresponding conjugate exponent. We prove the continuity of solutions $u \in W^{1,(\frac{n}{n-1},q')}(B^n, \mathbb{R}^m)$ to the critical elliptic system $-\Delta u = \Omega \cdot \nabla u$ in dimension $n \ge 3$, where the potential $\Omega \in L^{(n,q)}(B^n, \mathfr...
In this paper we study an equivalence between the existence of a Sobolev inequality without gain, \[\|\varphi\|_{L^p(v,\Omega)} \leq S(p,1) \| \sqrt{Q}\nabla \varphi\|_{L^p(\Omega)},\] that holds for smooth functions of compact support and the existence of a degenerate weak solution $(u,\nabla u)\in QH^{1,p}_0(v,\Omega...
Let $\mathbb H^n$ be the $n$-dimensional hyperbolic space, and $\Delta_{\mathbb H^n}$ be the Laplace--Beltrami operator on $\mathbb H^n$. Let $u=u(t,\cdot)$ be the solution to the wave equation $\partial^2_{t}u-\big(\Delta_{\mathbb H^n}+\frac{1}{4}(n-1)^2\operatorname{Id}\big)u=0$ with initial conditions $u(0,x)=f(x)$...

We investigate positive radial solutions with an isolated nonremovable singularity for the semilinear elliptic equation \begin{align*} \Delta_{\mathbb{H}^N} u+\lambda u+u^p=0 \qquad\text{in }\mathbb{H}^N\setminus\{Q\}, \end{align*} where $N\geq 3$, $p>1$, $\lambda\le \frac{(N-1)^2}{4}$, and $Q\in\mathbb{H}^N$ is a pres...
