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…

Associated Legendre polynomials and spherical harmonics are central to calculations in many fields of science and mathematics - not only chemistry but computer graphics, magnetic, seismology and geodesy. There are a number of algorithms for…
We present a construction method for triharmonic maps to spheres. In particular, we show that for any $m\in\mathbb{N}$ with $m\geq 3$ there exists a triharmonic map from $\mathbb{R}^m\setminus\{0\}$ into a round sphere. In addition, we…

Spherical manifolds yield cosmic spaces with positive curvature. They result by closing pieces from the sphere used by Einstein for his initial cosmology. Harmonic analysis on the manifolds aims at explaining the observed low amplitudes at…

A general method for the determination of the harmonics of quotients of the 3-sphere is given. They can all be deduced from three objects already known from Klein. We further show explicitly how these harmonics can be organized in…
