Some aspects of the theory of harmonic gauges over Riemann surfaces
The main subject of this Thesis is the study of harmonic maps from compact Riemann surfaces into unitary groups, and various generalisations and related subjects. Harmonic maps are critical points of the energy functional. In the case we are considering, the associated Euler-Lagrange equations are p...
