Harmonicity of holomorphic maps between various subclasses of almost contact metric manifolds is discussed. Consequently, some new results are obtained. Also some known results are recovered, some of them are generalized and some of them…

We determine the cardinality of the value sets of bivariate Chebyshev maps over finite fields. We achieve this using the dynamical properties of these maps and the algebraic expressions of their fixed points in terms of roots of unity.

In this paper we generalize harmonic maps and morphisms to the \emph{degenerate semi-Riemannian category}, in the case when the manifolds $M$ and $N$ are \emph{stationary} and the map $\phi :M\to N$ is \emph{radical-preserving}. We…

We introduce a general notion of twistorial map and classify twistorial harmonic morphisms with one-dimensional fibres from self-dual four-manifolds. Such maps can be characterised as those which pull back Abelian monopoles to self-dual…
