Weak conformality of stable stationary maps for a functional related to conformality

Shigeo Kawai, Nobumitsu Nakauchi

Let $(M,g)$, $(N,h)$ be compact Riemannian manifolds without boundary, and let $f$ be a smooth map from $M$ into $N$. We consider a covariant symmetric tensor $T_f$ $=$ ${\displa…
