Abstract: Proper Definite Affine Spheres
(or PDAS-surfaces) in R^3 are equivalent to primitive harmonic maps from
Riemann surfaces into the 6-symmetric space SL(3,R)/SO(2,R). After proving an
Iwasawa-type double coset decomposition for the associated complex twisted loop
group of A^(2)_2 type, we give a Weierstrass-type representation by either holomorphic
or other meromorphic DPW potentials. The linear DPW flow on the only two open
Iwasawa cosets corresponds exactly to the elliptic and the hyperbolic parts
respectively, while the other cosets having finite codimensions provide
algebraic types for the branch curves or points between these parts. Then
equivariant PDAS-surfaces are classified: among all seven Riemann surfaces
admitting one-parameter group of automorphisms, the Riemann sphere, the complex
plane, the punctured plane, the unit disk and the annulus admit affine
conformal branch immersions into R^3 as global equivariant PDAS-surfaces; but
the punctured disk and any torus do not admit such immersions. There is no
equivariant PDAS-surface with screw-motion symmetry either. Most of these global
surfaces consist of both elliptic and hyperbolic parts. They suggest that the
Calabi conjecture for complete hyperbolic affine spheres (proved by Cheng-Yau)
may be generalized to some global PDAS-surfaces of mixed parts. This is a joint
work with Josef Dorfmeister and Gang Wang.
