MiS Preprint Repository

We have decided to discontinue the publication of preprints on our preprint server as of 1 March 2024. The publication culture within mathematics has changed so much due to the rise of repositories such as ArXiV (www.arxiv.org) that we are encouraging all institute members to make their preprints available there. An institute's repository in its previous form is, therefore, unnecessary. The preprints published to date will remain available here, but we will not add any new preprints here.

Harmonic maps and singularities of period mappings

Jürgen Jost, Yi-Hu Yang and Kang Zuo

Abstract

We use simple methods from harmonic maps to investigate singularities of period mappings at infifinity. More precisely, we derive a harmonic map version of Schmid's nilpotent orbit theorem.
