In this paper, we extend the definition of the Jacobi operator of smooth maps, and biharmonic maps via the variation of bienergy between two Riemannian manifolds. We construct an example of (p, f)-biharmonic non (p, f)-harmonic map. We also prove some Liouville type theorems for (p, f)-biharmonic maps.

In this paper, we present some new properties for p-biharmonic hypersurfaces in a Riemannian manifold. We also characterize the p-biharmonic submanifolds in an Einstein space. We construct a new example of proper p-biharmonic hypersurfaces. We present some open problems.

In this paper, we study harmonic maps and biharmonic maps on the principal G-bundle in Kobayashi and Nomizu and also the warped product $P=M{\times}_fF$ for a $C^{\infty}$(M) function f on M studied by Bishop and O'Neill, and Ejiri.

In this paper, we investigate p-biharmonic maps u : (M, g) $\rightarrow$ (N, h) from a Riemannian manifold into a Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature. We obtain that if ${\int}_M|{\tau}(u)|^{{\alpha}+p}dv_g$ < ${\infty}$ and ${\int}_M|d(u)|^2dv_g$ < ${\infty}$, then u is harmonic, where ${\alpha}{\geq}0$ is a nonnegative constant and $p{\geq}2$. We also obtain that any weakly convex p-biharmonic hypersurfaces in space formN(c) with $c{\leq}0$ is minimal. These results give affirmative partial answer to Conjecture 2 (generalized Chen's conjecture for p-biharmonic submanifolds).

In this paper, we investigate exponentially biharmonic maps u : (M, g) ${\rightarrow}$ (N, h) from a Riemannian manifold into a Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature. We obtain that if $\int_{M}e^{\frac{p{\mid}r(u){\mid}^2}{2}{\mid}{\tau}(u){\mid}^pdv_g$ < ${\infty}$ ($p{\geq}2$), $\int_{M}{\mid}{\tau}(u){\mid}^2dv_g$ < ${\infty}$ and $\int_{M}{\mid}d(u){\mid}^2dv_g$ < ${\infty}$, then u is harmonic. When u is an isometric immersion, we get that if $\int_{M}e^{\frac{pm^2{\mid}H{\mid}^2}{2}}{\mid}H{\mid}^qdv_g$ < ${\infty}$ for 2 ${\leq}$ p < ${\infty}$ and 0 < q ${\leq}$ p < ${\infty}$, then u is minimal. We also obtain that any weakly convex exponentially biharmonic hypersurface in space form N(c) with $c{\leq}0$ is minimal. These results give affirmative partial answer to conjecture 3 (generalized Chen's conjecture for exponentially biharmonic submanifolds).

The authors investigate f-biharmonic maps u : (M, g) ${\rightarrow}$ (N, h) from a Riemannian manifold into a Riemannian manifold with non-positive sectional curvature, and derive that if $\int_{M}f^p{\mid}{\tau}(u){\mid}^pdv_g$ < ${\infty}$, $\int_{M}{\mid}{\tau}(u){\mid}^2dv_g$ < ${\infty}$ and $\int_{M}{\mid}du{\mid}^2dv_g$ < ${\infty}$, then u is harmonic. When u is an isometric immersion, the authors also get that if u satisfies some integral conditions, then it is minimal. These results give an affirmative partial answer to conjecture 4 (generalized Chen's conjecture for f-biharmonic submanifolds).
