Abstract: We prove the following vanishing theorem. Let M be an irreducible symmetric space of noncompact type whose dimension exceeds 2 and $MeS{O}_0(2,2)/SO(2)mSO(2).$ Let E be any vector bundle over M, Then any E-valued $L^2$ harmonic 1-form over M vanishes. In particular we get the vanishing theorem for harmonic maps from irreducible symmetric spaces of noncompact type.

Review text

Let \(M\) be an irreducible symmetric space of noncompact type of dimension at least \(3\) and other than \(D_{IV}(2)\), and let \(\pi: E \to M\) be any vector bundle over \(M\). The author shows that any \(E\)-valued \(L^2\) harmonic \(1\)-form of \(M\) vanishes. This implies the vanishing theorem for harmonic maps on irreducible symmetric spaces of noncompact type.
