We define two transforms between non-conformal harmonic maps from a surface into the 3-sphere. With these transforms one can construct, from one such harmonic map, a sequence of harmonic maps. We show that there is a correspondence between…

Conformal harmonic maps from a 4-dimensional conformal manifold to a Riemannian manifold are maps satisfying a certain conformally invariant fourth order equation. We prove a general existence result for conformal harmonic maps, analogous…

We prove that for any open Riemann surface $N,$ natural number $n\geq 3,$ non-constant harmonic map $h:N\to \mathbb{R}^{n-2}$ and holomorphic 2-form $H$ on $N,$ there exists a weakly complete harmonic map $X=(X_j)_{j=1,\ldots,n}:N \to…

Let $\mathfrak{M}(\Sigma)$ be an open and connected subset of the space of hyperbolic metrics on a closed orientable surface, and $\mathfrak{M}(M)$ an open and connected subset of the space of metrics on an orientable manifold of dimension…

In this paper, we prove that unital homomorphisms from continuous functions on a compact metric space to matrices over a C*-algebra with tracial rank at most one are approximately diagonalizable. We also consider some generalizations of…

We study biharmonic maps between Riemannian manifolds with finite energy and finite bi-energy. We show that if the domain is complete and the target of non-positive curvature, then such a map is harmonic. We then give applications to…

In this paper we introduce two new methods for constructing harmonic morphisms from solvable Lie groups. The first method yields global solutions from any simply connected nilpotent Lie group and from any Riemannian symmetric space of…

By studying cohomology classes that are related with $p$-harmonic morphisms, $F$-harmonic maps, and $f$-harmonic maps, we extend several of our previous results on Riemannian submersions and $p$-harmonic morphisms to $F$-harmonic maps, and…

We consider four dimensional Lie groups with left-invariant Riemannian metrics. For such groups we classify left-invariant conformal foliations with minimal leaves of codimension two. These foliations produce local complex-valued harmonic…

We study the topology of the space of harmonic maps from $S^2$ to \CP 2$. We prove that the subspaces consisting of maps of a fixed degree and energy are path connected. By a result of Guest and Ohnita it follows that the same is true for…

We present a comprehensive construction of scalar, vector and tensor harmonics on maximally symmetric three-dimensional spaces. Our formalism relies on the introduction of spin-weighted spherical harmonics and a generalized helicity basis…

It is proved, that if M is a connected, complete submanifold of a complex space form N and each geodesic of M lies in an 1-dimensional totally geodesic complex submanifold of N, then M is totally geodesic in N and is a real space form or a…

Let $(X,g)$ be a compact Riemannian stratified space with simple edge singularity. Thus a neighbourhood of the singular stratum is a bundle of truncated cones over a lower dimensional compact smooth manifold. We calculate the various…

In this article, we prove several results about the extension to the boundary of conformal immersions from an open subset $\Omega$ of a Riemannian manifold $L$, into another Riemannian manifold $N$ of the same dimension. In dimension $n…

It is shown that self-dual theories generalize to four dimensions both the conformal and analytic aspects of two-dimensional conformal field theories. In the harmonic space language there appear several ways to extend complex analyticity…

Suppose that $f: Y\to X$ is a proper, dominant, tamely ramified morphism of algebraic surfaces, over a perfect field. We show that it is possible to perform sequences of monoidal transforms $Y'\to Y$ and $X'\to X$ to obtain an induced…

Maps between Riemannian manifolds which are submersions on a dense subset, are studied by means of the eigenvalues of the pull-back of the target metrics, the first fundamental form. Expressions for the derivatives of these eigenvalues…

We describe recent nonlinear analytic approximation tools in the classical setting of Hardy spaces in the upper half plane and show how to transfer them to the higher dimensional real setting of harmonic functions in upper half spaces. It…

We show that a harmonic map from a Riemann surface into the exceptional symmetric space $G_2/{\mathrm SO}(4)$ has a $J_2$-holomorphic twistor lift into one of the three flag manifolds of $G_2$ if and only if it is `nilconformal', i.e., has…
