The resulting semilinear elliptic system is {\\it not} in divergence form. The case of noncompact complete preimage and target manifolds is considered. We give conditions for existence and uniqueness of Hermitian-harmonic maps and solutions of the corresponding parabolic system, which observe the non-divergence form of the underlying equations. Numerous examples illustrate the theoretical results and the fundamental difference to harmonic maps.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-03-12T17:11:18.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "58C44", "35J60" ], "keywords": [ "complete riemannian manifolds", "hermitian-harmonic maps", "complete hermitian", "hermitian harmonic maps", "resulting semilinear elliptic system" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 26, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003math......3137G" } } }
