Abstract: The Einstein/Abelian-Yang-Mills Equations reduce in the stationary and axially symmetric case to a harmonic map with prescribed singularities $pcolon{R}^{3}smSigmao{H}_C^{k+1}$ into the $(k+1)$-dimensional complex hyperbolic space. In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of harmonic maps with prescribed singularities $pcolon{R}^{n}smSigmaoH$, where $Sigma$ is an unbounded smooth closed submanifold of $R^n$ of codimension at least $2$, and $H$ is a real, complex, or quaternionic hyperbolic space. As a corollary, we prove the existence of solutions to the reduced stationary and axially symmetric Einstein/Abelian-Yang-Mills Equations.
