Global asymptotic stability of explicit hyperbolic solitons

Let (u0,u1)(u_0,u_1) be smooth finite energy initial data for wave maps

(u0,u1):H2H2(u_0,u_1):\mathbb{H}^2\to\mathbb{H}^2

with spacetime domain R×H2\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{H}^2. Fix λ[0,1)\lambda\in[0,1) and suppose that, for some compact set KH2K\Subset\mathbb{H}^2,

u0(x)=Pλ(x)for xH2K.u_0(x)=\mathcal{P}_\lambda(x)\qquad\text{for }x\in\mathbb{H}^2\setminus K.

Non-equivariant soliton resolution conjecture. The unique wave-map evolution associated with (u0,u1)(u_0,u_1) is globally regular and scatters to (Pλ,0)(\mathcal{P}_\lambda,0) as t±t\to\pm\infty. This is presented as a more ambitious nonequivariant form of soliton resolution; the source gives no resolution, while emphasizing that it would imply global asymptotic stability under arbitrarily large non-equivariant perturbations.
