A boundary value problem for Hermitian harmonic maps and applications. (English) Zbl 0864.58009

Author’s abstract: We study the existence and uniqueness problem for Hermitian harmonic maps from Hermitian manifolds with boundary to Riemannian manifolds of nonpositive sectional curvature and with convex boundary. The complex analyticity of such maps and the related rigidity problems are also investigated.
