Abstract

An elliptic equation arising from the study of static solutions with prescribed zeros and poles of the Einstein equations coupled with the classical sigma model and an Abelian gauge field, is considered. We classify the solutions and establish the uniqueness of radially symmetric solutions. We also complete a classification of symmetric solutions of an elliptic equation on the sphere.
