We use filtrations of the Grassmannian model to produce explicit algebraic formulae for all harmonic maps of finite uniton number from a Riemann surface, and so all harmonic maps from the 2-sphere, to the unitary group for a general class…

Using tools from the geometry of Einstein solvmanifolds, we give a geometric argument that a semi-simple Lie algebra (of non-compact type) is completely determined by its Iwasawa subalgebra. Furthermore, we produce an algebraic procedure…

We construct harmonic maps into SU(1,1)/U(1) starting from Smyth potentials \xi, by the DPW method, In this method, harmonic maps are obtained from the Iwasawa factorization of a solution L of L^{-1} dL = \xi. However, the Iwasawa…

The Cartan and Iwasawa decompositions of real reductive Lie groups play a fundamental role in the representation theory of the groups and their corresponding symmetric spaces. These decompositions are defined by an involution with a compact…

We introduce a new method for constructing complex-valued $r$-harmonic functions on Riemannian manifolds. We then apply this method for the important semisimple Lie groups $SO(n)$, $SU(n)$, $Sp(n)$, $SL_n(R)$, $Sp(R,n)$, $SU(p,q)$,…

The scalar difference equation $x_{n+1}=f_{n}(x_{n},x_{n-1},...,x_{n-k})$ may exhibit symmetries in its form that allow for reduction of order through substitution or a change of variables. Such form symmetries can be defined generally…

This paper classifies the factorizations of almost simple groups with a factor having at least two nonsolvable composition factors. This together with a previous classification result of the authors reduces the factorization problem of…
