Harmonic morphisms between riemannian manifolds

Bent Fuglede (1978)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

A harmonic morphism f : M → N between Riemannian manifolds M and N is by definition a continuous mappings which pulls back harmonic functions. It is assumed that dim M ≥ dim N , since otherwise every harmonic morphism is constant. It is shown that a harmonic morphism is the same as a harmonic mapping in the sense of Eells and Sampson with the further property of being semiconformal, that is, a conformal submersion of the points where d f vanishes. Every non-constant harmonic morphism is shown to be an open mapping....

Higher symmetries of the Laplacian via quantization

Jean-Philippe Michel (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We develop a new approach, based on quantization methods, to study higher symmetries of invariant differential operators. We focus here on conformally invariant powers of the Laplacian over a conformally flat manifold and recover results of Eastwood, Leistner, Gover and Šilhan. In particular, conformally equivariant quantization establishes a correspondence between the algebra of Hamiltonian symmetries of the null geodesic flow and the algebra of higher symmetries of the conformal Laplacian. Combined...

Homogeneous Cartan geometries

Matthias Hammerl (2007)

Archivum Mathematicum

We describe invariant principal and Cartan connections on homogeneous principal bundles and show how to calculate the curvature and the holonomy; in the case of an invariant Cartan connection we give a formula for the infinitesimal automorphisms. The main result of this paper is that the above calculations are purely algorithmic. As an example of an homogeneous parabolic geometry we treat a conformal structure on the product of two spheres.
