Abstract: We extend the notion of a pseudoholomorphic vector of Iwaniec, Verchota, and Vogel to mappings between Riemannian manifolds. Since this class of mappings contains both quasiregular mappings and (pseudo)holomorphic curves, we call them quasiregular curves. Let $nlem$ and let $M$ be an oriented Riemannian $n$-manifold, $N$ a Riemannian $m$-manifold, and $omegainOmeg{a}^n(N)$ a smooth closed non-vanishing $n$-form on $N$. A continuous Sobolev map $fcolonMoN$ in $W_{mathrmloc}^{1,n}(M,N)$ is a $K$-quasiregular $omega$-curve for $Kge1$ if $f$ satisfies the distortion inequality $(lVertomegaVertcircf)lVertDfVer{t}^{n}leK(star{f}^{*}omega)$ almost everywhere in $M$. We prove that quasiregular curves satisfy Gromov's quasiminimality condition and a version of Liouville's theorem stating that bounded quasiregular curves $mathbb{R}^{n}omathbb{R}^m$ are constant. We also prove a limit theorem that a locally uniform limit $fcolonMoN$ of $K$-quasiregular $omega$-curves $(f_{j}colonMoN)$ is also a $K$-quasiregular $omega$-curve. We also show that a non-constant quasiregular $omega$-curve $fcolonMoN$ is discrete and satisfies $star{f}^{*}omega>0$ almost everywhere, if one of the following additional conditions hold: the form $omega$ is simple or the map $f$ is $C^1$-smooth.
