Energy of harmonic functions and Gromov's proof of Stallings' theorem [PDF]
We provide the details for Gromov's proof of Stallings' theorem on groups with infinitely many ends using harmonic functions. The main technical result of the paper is a compactness theorem for a certain family of harmonic functions.

Helicoidal graphs with prescribed mean curvature [PDF]
We prove an existence result for helicoidal graphs with prescribed mean curvature in a large class of warped product spaces which comprises space forms.

Harmonic morphisms on conformally flat 3-spheres [PDF]
We show that under some non-degeneracy assumption the only submersive harmonic morphism on a conformally flat $3-$sphere is the Hopf fibration. The proof involves an appropriate use the Chern-Simons functional.

Differential as a harmonic morphism with respect to Cheeger--Gromoll type metrics [PDF]
We investigate horizontal conformality of a differential of a map between Riemannian manifolds where the tangent bundles are equipped with Cheeger--Gromoll type metrics. As a corollary, we characterize the differential of a map as a harmonic morphism.

Biharmonic Riemannian maps [PDF]
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for Riemannian maps to be biharmonic. We also define pseudo umbilical Riemannian maps as a generalization of pseudo-umbilical submanifolds and show that such Riemannian maps put some restrictions on the base manifolds.

Vertical martingales, stochastic calculus and harmonic sections [PDF]
This work is about a new class of martingales: the vertical martingales. We construct the vertical martingale for smooth submersions and we develop a stochastic calculus for one. Furthermore, we gives a stochastic characterization for harmonic sections.
