In this paper, we prove the Lipschitz regularity of continuous harmonic maps from a finite-dimensional Alexandrov space to a compact smooth Riemannian manifold. This solves a conjecture of F. H.
A note on local gradient estimate on Alexandrov spaces
• Mathematics

To prove the regularity of harmonic functions on Alexandrov spaces is a challenging problem because of the lack of the smoothness of the metrics; the Holder continuity of harmonic functions is
Harmonic functions on metric measure spaces

In this paper, we study harmonic functions on metric measure spaces with Riemannian Ricci curvature bounded from below, which were introduced by Ambrosio-Gigli-Savar\'e. We prove a Cheng-Yau type
