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 construct the first known complex valued harmonic morphisms from the non-compact Lie groups SL(n,R), SU*(2n) and Sp(n,R) equipped with their standard Riemannian metrics. We then introduce the notion of a bi-eigenfamily and employ this to…
