We prove two rigidity theorems for maps between Riemannian manifolds. First, we prove that a Lipschitz map $f:M\to N$ between two oriented Riemannian manifolds, whose differential is almost everywhere an orientation-preserving isometry, is…

Almost contact structures can be identified with sections of a twistor bundle and this allows to define their harmonicity, as sections or maps. We consider the class of nearly cosymplectic almost contact structures on a Riemannian manifold…

It was shown by Seaman that if a compact, oriented 4-dimensional riemannian manifold (M, g) of positive sectional curvature admits a harmonic 2-form of constant length, its intersection form is definite and such a harmonic form is unique up…

Let $K\ge 1$ and $p\in(1,2]$. We obtain asymptotically sharp constant $c(K,p)$, when $K\to 1$ in the inequality $$\|\Im f\|_{p}\le c(K,p)\|\Re(f)\|_p$$ where $f\in \mathbf{h}^p$ is a $K-$quasiregular harmonic mapping in the unit disk…

Quasiconformal maps in the plane are orientation preserving homeomorphisms that satisfy certain distortion inequalities; infinitesimally, they map circles to ellipses of bounded eccentricity. Such maps have many useful geometric distortion…

We introduce a new notion of a harmonic measure for a $d$-dimensional set in $\R^n$ with $d<n-1$, that is, when the codimension is strictly bigger than 1. Our measure is associated to a degenerate elliptic PDE, it gives rise to a…

We define harmonic maps between sub-Riemannian manifolds by generalizing known definitions for Riemannian manifolds. We establish conditions for when a horizontal map into a Lie group with a left-invariant metric structure is a harmonic…

On non-K\"ahler manifolds the notion of harmonic maps is modified to that of Hermitian harmonic maps in order to be compatible with the complex structure. The resulting semilinear elliptic system is {\it not} in divergence form. The case of…
