Introduction to the Construction of Harmonic Maps
Sala B3-01

John C. Wood (University of Leeds - Invited Professor of FCUL - Gulbenkian professorship)

Abstract:

This is the third seminar in the series. We will see how the standard twistor theory for isotropic (pluri-) harmonic maps is naturally embedded in the general theory of Dorfmeister and Eschenburg which was described in the first two seminars. We will then sketch how the theme of obtaining harmonic maps from holomorphic data is implemented by Burstall and Guest, giving some examples.
