Harmonic maps and representations of non-uniform lattices of \(PU(m,1)\)
Harmonic maps and representations of non-uniform lattices of \(PU(m,1)\)
Abstract: We study representations of lattices of PU(m,1) into PU(n,1). We show that if a representation is reductive and if m is at least 2, then there exists a finite energy harmonic equivariant map from complex hyperbolic m-space to complex hyperbolic n-space. This allows us to give a differential geometric proof of rigidity results obtained by M. Burger and A. Iozzi. We also define a new invariant associated to representations into PU(n,1) of non-uniform lattices in PU(1,1), and more generally of fundamental groups of orientable surfaces of finite topological type and negative Euler characteristic. We prove that this invariant is bounded by a constant depending only on the Euler characteristic of the surface and we give a complete characterization of representations with maximal invariant, thus generalizing the results of D. Toledo for uniform lattices.
The authors make use of harmonic maps techniques to study representations of lattices of \(PU(m,1)\) into \(PU(n,1)\) in order to provide rigidity results. This goes as follows: first one shows the existence of a harmonic map between the corresponding symmetric spaces. Then one must prove, under certain constraints, that the harmonic map is pluriharmonic, holomorphic, totally geodesic, isometric, depending on the situation. The existence is proved of a harmonic map from \(\mathbb H^m_C\) to \(\mathbb H^n_C\) making use of Corlette's results. Finally the authors study a new invariant associated to representations of fundamental groups of finite topological type and negative Euler characteristic into \(PU(n,1)\).
