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 $SO(n)$, $SU(n)$, $Sp(n)$, $SL_n(R)$, $Sp(R,n)$, $SU(p,q)$,…

In this work we construct explicit complex-valued p-harmonic functions on the compact Riemannian symmetric spaces SU(n)/SO(n), Sp(n)/U(n), SO(2n)/U(n), SU(2n)/Sp(n). We also describe how the same can be manufactured on their non-compact…
We use functions of a bicomplex variable to unify the existing constructions of harmonic morphisms from a 3-dimensional Euclidean or pseudo-Euclidean space to a Riemannian or Lorentzian surface. This is done by using the notion of…
In this work we construct new multi-dimensional families of compact minimal submanifolds, of the classical Riemannian symmetric spaces $SU(n)/SO(n)$, $Sp(n)/U(n)$, $SO(2n)/U(n)$ and $SU(2n)/Sp(n)$, of codimension two.
We apply the method of eigenfamilies to construct new explicit complex-valued p-harmonic functions on the non-compact classical Lie groups, equipped with their natural semi-Riemannian metrics. We then employ this same approach to…
