Twistor Theory for Riemannian Symmetric Spaces With Applications to Harmonic Maps of Riemann Surfaces

In this monograph on twistor theory and its applications to harmonic map theory, a central theme is the interplay between the complex homogeneous geometry of flag manifolds and the real homogeneous geometry of symmetric spaces. In particular, flag manifolds are shown to arise as twistor spaces of Ri...
