DESCRIPTION:We consider the problem of finding harmonic maps to the circle
  with a prescribed singular set in an arbitrary Riemannian manifold and ch
 aracterise their uniqueness in terms of the "one-dimensional topology" of 
 the ambient space. We then show how these maps can be used to define new n
 otions of (n-2)-volume\, leading to a promising approximation scheme for c
 lassical codimension 2 minimal surfaces.
