Abstract

In the present paper, deformations of harmonic 2-spheres in the unit n-sphere Sn respecting the degree are studied. The limit maps of such deformations are characterized as harmonic maps with extra eigenfunctions. The space Harmd(s2, Sn) of harmonic 2-spheres in Sn with fixed degree d is described in terms of such deformations and the limit maps.
