چکیده
In this article we demonstrate that every harmonic map from a closed Riemannian manifold into a Hilbert Grassmannian has image contained within a finite-dimensional Grassmannian.

Filtrations, Factorizations and Explicit Formulae for Harmonic Maps
We use filtrations of the Grassmannian model to produce explicit algebraic formulae for harmonic maps of finite uniton number from a Riemann surface to the unitary group for a general class of factorizations by unitons. We show how these specialize to give explicit formulae for harmonic maps into the special orthogonal and symplectic groups, real, complex and quaternionic Grassmannians, and the...
متن کاملLiouville theorems for harmonic maps
Recently there has been much interest in the Liouville type theorems for harmonic maps. For a detailed survey and progress in this direction, see the works by Hildebrandt [4], Eells and Lemaire [2]. Here we would like to mention that for all known results, the conditions on the harmonic maps can be divided into two kinds. The first of these conditions concerns the finiteness of the energy of th...
متن کاملUnitons and Their Moduli Harmonic Maps between Riemannian Manifolds M and N Are Critical Values of an Energy Functional
We sketch the proof that unitons (harmonic spheres in U(N)) correspond to holomorphicùniton bundles', and that these admit monad representations analogous to Donaldson's representation of instanton bundles. We also give a closed-form expression for the unitons involving only matrix operations , a nite-gap result (two-unitons have energy 4), computations of fundamental groups of energy 4 compone...
متن کاملFiniteness of Disjoint Minimal Graphs
of u in R is called a minimal graph supported on Ω. In a recent article of Meeks-Rosenberg [M-R], where they proved the unicity of the helicoid, the authors showed that if the defining functions {ui} of a set of disjointly supported minimal graphs {Gi} have bounded gradients, then the number of graphs must be finite. In a private communication with the first author, Rosenberg posed the question...
متن کاملNon-linear ergodic theorems in complete non-positive curvature metric spaces
Hadamard (or complete $CAT(0)$) spaces are complete, non-positive curvature, metric spaces. Here, we prove a nonlinear ergodic theorem for continuous non-expansive semigroup in these spaces as well as a strong convergence theorem for the commutative case. Our results extend the standard non-linear ergodic theorems for non-expansive maps on real Hilbert spaces, to non-expansive maps on Ha...
