We consider the problem of finding harmonic maps to the circle with a prescribed singular set in an arbitrary Riemannian manifold and characterise 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 notions of (n-2)-volume, leading to a promising approximation scheme for classical codimension 2 minimal surfaces.
