Research Abstract |
The construction of harmonic two-tori in symmetric spaces are known in two ways. One way is a method using twistor fibration and the resulting harmonic map is said to be superminimal. Another way is a method using the theory of integrable system and it is constructed from two-dimensional linear flows. The latter harmonic map is said to be finite type. For example, any non-conformal harmonic two-tori in compact symmetric spaces of rank one is of finite type. Burstall proved any weakly conformal non-superminimal harmonic two-tori in a sphere or a complex projective space is covered by a primitive map of finite type. Then the following problems naturally arises : (1) Is weakly conformal non-superminimal hatmonic two-tori in quaternionic projective space covered by a primitive map of finite type? (2) How about the case where the target is a compact symmetric space of rank greater than one? Our result for the problem (1) is : Any weakly conformal non-superminimal harmonic two-tori in HP^3 is covered by a primitive map of finite type or constructed by using twistor fibration. For the problem (2), weakly conformal non-superminimal harmonic two-tori in G_2(C^4) is covered by a primitive map of finite type or constructed by using twistor fibration. Under the additional condition, the same type theorem holds for G_2(C^<2n>).
