Regularity of Dirac-harmonic maps

For any $n$-dimensional compact spin Riemannian manifold $M$ with a given spin structure and a spinor bundle $ΣM$, and any compact Riemannian manifold $N$, we show an $ε$-regularity theorem for weakly Dirac-harmonic maps . As a consequence, any weakly Dirac-harmonic map is proven to be smooth when n = 2. A weak convergence theorem for approximate Dirac-harmonic maps is established when $n = 2$. For $n \ge 3$, we introduce the notation of stationary Dirac-harmonic maps and obtain a Liouville theorem for stationary Dirac-harmonic maps in $R^n$. If, additions, $ψ\in W^{1,p}$ for some $p>2n/3$, then we obtain an energy monotonicity formula and prove a partial regularity theorem for any such a stationary Dirac-harmonic map.
