Some basic facts on the system $\Delta u - W_{u} (u) = 0$

Abstract: Abstract. We rewrite the system Δu − W u (u) = 0, for u : R n → R n , in the form div T = 0, where T is an appropriate stress-energy tensor, and derive certain a priori consequences on the solutions. In particular, we point out some differences between two paradigms: the phase-transition system, with target a finite set of points, and the Ginzburg-Landau system, with target a connected manifold.

“…If F (u(x 0 )) = 0 for some x 0 ∈ R n , then u must be constant. (3) Again, making use of the Modica-type estimate, the following monotonicity formula has been established in [2]. Let u : R n → R be an entire, bounded solution of the nonlinear Poisson equation.…”
