Smooth long‐time existence of Harmonic Ricci Flow on surfaces
Abstract We prove that at a finite singular time for the Harmonic Ricci Flow on a surface of positive genus both the energy density of the map component and the curvature of the domain manifold have to blow up simultaneously. As an immediate consequence, we obtain smooth long‐time existence for the Harmonic Ricci Flow with large coupling constant.

Minimizing energy among homotopic maps
We study an energy minimizing sequence {ui} in a fixed homotopy class of smooth maps from a 3‐manifold. After deriving an approximate monotonicity property for {ui} and a continuous version of the Luckhaus lemma (Simon, 1996) on S2, we show that, passing to a subsequence, {ui} converges strongly in W1,2 topology wherever there is small energy ...

Harmonicity of horizontally conformal maps and spectrum of the Laplacian
We discuss the harmonicity of horizontally conformal maps and their relations with the spectrum of the Laplacian. We prove that if Φ : M → N is a horizontally conformal map such that the tension field is divergence free, then Φ is harmonic. Furthermore, if N is noncompact, then Φ must be constant.

Curvature conditions for complex-valued harmonic morphisms
We study the curvature of a manifold on which there can be defined a complex-valued submersive harmonic morphism with either, totally geodesic fibers or that is holomorphic with respect to a complex structure which is compatible with the second ...

Biharmonic Riemannian submersions from 3-manifolds
An important theorem about biharmonic submanifolds proved independently by Chen-Ishikawa [CI] and Jiang [Ji] states that an isometric immersion of a surface into 3-dimensional Euclidean space is biharmonic if and only if it is harmonic (i.e, minimal). In

Complete minimal submanifolds of compact Lie groups
We give a new method for manufacturing complete minimal submanifolds of compact Lie groups and their homogeneous quotient spaces. For this we make use of harmonic morphisms and basic representation theory of Lie groups.

Harmonic morphisms from the classical compact semisimple Lie groups
In this paper we introduce a new method for manufacturing harmonic morphisms from semi-Riemannian manifolds. This is employed to yield a variety of new examples from the compact Lie groups SO(n), SU(n) and Sp(n) equipped with their standard Riemannian ...

On the harmonicity of normal almost contact metric structures
We consider normal almost contact structures on a Riemannian manifold and, through their associated sections of an ad-hoc twistor bundle, study their harmonicity, as sections or as maps.
