AbstractA complete classification is given of harmonic morphisms to a surface and conformal foliations by geodesics, with or without isolated singularities, of a simply-connected space form. The method is to associate to any such a holomorphic map from a Riemann surface into the space of geodesics of the space form. Properties such as nonintersecting fibres (or leaves) are translated into conditions on the holomorphic mapping which show it must have a simple form corresponding to a standard example.

In this note, we establish a variational setting for harmonic morphisms for target spaces of any dimension. We then extend this result to horizontally weakly conformal p-harmonic maps, such maps being p-harmonic morphisms.

We extend the notion of orthogonal multiplication to multilinear norm-preserving mapping, using them to construct new eigenmaps into spheres. We characterize those which are harmonic morphisms. By the method of reduction we construct interesting families of harmonic morphisms into S2 from the product manifolds H2 × S3 and S3 × S3 of hyperbolic spaces and spheres. The corresponding reduction equation depends on two independent variables. We are able to solve the first-order horizontal conformality problem explicitly in terms of elliptic functions and then render the map harmonic by a conformal deformation of the metric.

Let(Mn,g)be a closed Riemannian manifold andNa warped product manifold of two space forms. We investigate geometric properties by the spectra of the Jacobi operator of a harmonic mapϕ:M→N. In particular, we show ifNis a warped product manifold of Euclidean space with a space form andϕ,ψ:M→Nare two projectively harmonic maps, then the energy ofϕandψare equal up to constant ifϕandψare isospectral. Besides, we recover and improve some results by Kang, Ki, and Pak (1997) and Urakawa (1989).

We survey results on infinitesimal deformations ("Jacobi fields") of harmonic maps, concentrating on (i) when they are integrable, i.e., arise from genuine deformations, and what this tells us, (ii) their relation with harmonic morphisms — maps which preserve Laplace's equation.
