Overview
- Presents the recent crucial developments of harmonic maps into biharmonic maps, of wave maps into biwave maps and of Yang-Mills fields into bi-Yang-Mills fields
- Discusses exponential harmonic maps, exponential wave maps and exponential Yang-Mills fields
- Introduces biwave maps (generalizing wave maps) and bi-Yang-Mills fields (generalizing Yang-Mills fields)

From the book reviews:
“The monograph under review gathers developments in the theory of harmonic maps, wave maps, and Yang-Mills fields, and their generalisations to biharmonic maps, biwave maps, and bi-Yang-Mills fields. … The present book is a very useful text for experts in the field of harmonic and biharmonic maps, providing us with a rich and updated source of information on the subject.” (Monica Alice Aprodu, Mathematical Reviews, July, 2014)Authors and Affiliations
