Schoen's harmonic extension conjecture for hyperbolic spaces

About 13 years old · traced to

Let n≥2n\geq 2, identify the ideal boundary ∂Hn\partial {\mathbb {H}}^{n} with Sn−1\mathbb {S}^{n-1}, and let f:Sn−1→Sn−1f:\mathbb {S}^{n-1}\to\mathbb {S}^{n-1} be a quasiconformal map. A map H:Hn→HnH:\mathbb {H}^{n}\to\mathbb {H}^{n} is quasi-isometric if it is a quasi-isometric embedding, and it extends ff if its boundary map is ff.

Schoen's conjecture. There exists a unique harmonic and quasi-isometric map

H:Hn→HnH:\mathbb {H}^{n}\to\mathbb {H}^{n}

that extends ff.

The conjecture concerns harmonic extensions of quasiconformal boundary maps between hyperbolic spaces. The source abstract states that the conjecture is confirmed in dimension 33, while the statement is posed for general nn; the status outside the proved dimension is not specified here.
