In a recent breakthrough, Huneau--Luk (arXiv:1907.10743) gave a proof of the conjecture in U(1)-symmetry and elliptic gauge. They also require control on up to fourth order derivatives of the metric components. In this paper, we give a streamlined proof of a stronger result and, in the spirit of Burnett's original conjecture, we remove the need for control on higher derivatives. Our methods also apply to general wave map equations.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-07-02T10:04:16.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "wave map systems", "einstein equations", "oscillations", "general wave map equations", "homogenization" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 28, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
