Clarification about solvability of Dirichlet problem at infinity on a pinched negative curvature space
Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold of pinched negative curvature $(-a^2 \leq K \leq -b^2 < 0)$. Let $M_\infty$ denote the ideal boundary and $\varphi \in C^0(M_\infty)$ be a prescribed "...

Obstructions for the wedge of coordinate differentials to be harmonic
Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth $d$-dimensional Riemannian manifold, $d$ even. Are there obstructions (I guess in terms of curvature) for $g$ to have the following property:
For every $p \in M$ there exist a ...

Invariance of the space of harmonic functions under derivation associated to a non-vanishing vector field
Let $X$ be a non-vanishing real analytic vector field on an open manifold $M$. What kind of obstructions would appear when we search for a Riemannian metric on $M$ such that the space of ...

harmonic extension of a curve by different parametrization
Let us consider a curve $\gamma :S^1 \rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3$ (or even a planar convex one if it simplifies). Then I look to the harmonic extension to the disc $h:\mathbb{D}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^3$ (...

Harmonic map heat flow in positive curvature
Suppose I wish to relax/smooth a map $\phi:M\rightarrow N$ between two surfaces $M,N$ embedded in $\mathbb{R}^3$. I could try flowing the map using harmonic heat flow, which (as I understand it) is ...
