Harmonic tori in de Sitter spaces S12n

Emma Carberry and Katharine Turner


Abstract

We show that all superconformal harmonic immersions from genus one surfaces into de Sitter spaces S12n with globally defined harmonic sequence are of finite-type and hence result merely from solving a pair of ordinary differential equations. As an application, we prove that all Willmore tori in S3 without umbilic points can be constructed in this simple way.
