Index-one conjecture for the biharmonic map from the generalised Clifford torus
Index-one conjecture for the biharmonic map from the generalised Clifford torus
Let be the generalised Clifford torus, viewed as a submanifold of , and consider the associated biharmonic map into . Generalised Clifford torus index conjecture. The biharmonic map constructed from the generalised Clifford torus has index . This would determine the precise index in this family; the surrounding results provide lower bounds for indices of biharmonic maps, but the supplied text gives no resolution of this claim.
