Abstract
We continue the work of the paper [J. Math. Phys. 37, 4076 (1996)] on the existence of globally defined harmonic maps from the Minkowski plane R1,1 into an infinite-dimensional Hilbert Lie group. We prove that the Cauchy problem for harmonic maps from R1,1 into Hilbert loop groups Hs(LG) can be solved globally for all remaining cases 12<s⩽34 and we obtain similar results for harmonic maps from R1,1 into certain Hilbert Lie gauge groups Hs(Sn,G) (n⩾2). These answer the two questions remaining from the above paper.
