      [For the entire collection see Zbl 0728.00004.] On a Riemannian manifold \((M,g)\) the Ahlfors Laplacian \(L\) is defined as the second order differential operator \(S^*S\) where \(S^*\) is the formal adjoint of \(S:=L_ \cdot g-(2/n)(\text{div}\cdot)g\), i.e. \(SX=L_ Xg-(2/n)(\text{div} X)\cdot g\) for vector fields \(X\) on \(M\). Here \(L_ X\) is the standard Lie derivative. The authors then show that \(L\) is elliptic and that the kernel of \(L\) consists exactly of the conformal Killing vector fields on \(M\). As an application the problem of finding quasi-conformal deformations of a given transformation is studied.
