The stability of the three-dimensional Hopf vector field, as a harmonic section of the unit tangent bundle is viewed from a number of different angles. The spectrum of the vertical Jacobi operator is computed, and compared with that of the Jacobi operator of the identity map on the 3-sphere. The var

We study the stability and instability of harmonic and minimal unit vector fields and the existence of absolute minima for the energy and volume functional on three-dimensional compact manifolds, in particular on compact quotients of unimodular Lie groups.
