We say that a Riemannian manifold (with dimension bigger than two) is a pinched Hadamard manifold if its is complete, simply connected, and its sectional curvature belongs to a negative real interval. We say that a map \(f\) between two Riemannian manifolds \(X\) and \(Y\) is quasi-isometric if there is positive constants \(c,C\) such that \(c\) bigger than 1 \[c^{-1}d_X(x_1,x_2)-C\le d_Y(f(x_1),f(x_2))\le cd_X(x_1,x_2)+C,\] for \((x_1,x_2)\in X^2\) and \(d_X(\cdot,\cdot)\) (resp. \(d_Y(\cdot,\cdot)\)) stands for the Riemannian distance on \(X\) (resp. \(Y\)) Now, we say that a map \(h\) between \(X\) and \(Y\) is harmonic if the trace of the second covariant derivative of \(h\) vanishes. The authors suppose that \(X\) and \(Y\) are pinched Hadamard manifolds and \(f\) is a quasi-isometric map and state that \(h\) is unique such that \(\displaystyle\sup_{x\in X}d_Y(h(x),f(x))\) is finite and concerning the proof of the uniqueness, they use an argument of Gromov-Hausdorff limits. For Part I, see [the authors, Duke Math. J. 58, No. 3, 829--850 (1989; Zbl 0681.53021)].
