Abstract
We construct a parabolic entire minimal graph over a finite topology complete Riemannian surface of curvature and infinite area (thus of non-parabolic conformal type). The vertical projection of this graph yields a harmonic diffeomorphism from onto . The proof uses the theory of divergence lines to construct minimal graphs. We also generalize a theorem of R. Schoen. Let and be two complete metrics on a orientable surface with compact boundary and suppose for some and all . If there is a harmonic diffeomorphism from to , then is parabolic.
