About this book
Reviews
From the book reviews:
“The monograph under review gathers developments in the theory of harmonic maps, wave maps, and Yang-Mills fields, and their generalisations to biharmonic maps, biwave maps, and bi-Yang-Mills fields. … The present book is a very useful text for experts in the field of harmonic and biharmonic maps, providing us with a rich and updated source of information on the subject.” (Monica Alice Aprodu, Mathematical Reviews, July, 2014)Authors and Affiliations
