Abstract:

Burstall classified conformal non-superminimal harmonic two-tori in spheres and complex projective spaces. In this paper, we shall classify conformal non-superminimal harmonic two-tori in a 2- or 3-dimensional quaternionic projective space, which are not always covered by primitive harmonic two-tori of finite type.
