On $\overline{\partial }_{b}$-harmonic maps from pseudo-Hermitian manifolds to K\"{a}hler manifolds

In this paper, we consider maps from pseudo-Hermitian manifolds to K\"{a}hler manifolds and introduce partial energy functionals for these maps. First, we obtain a foliated Lichnerowicz type result on general pseudo-Hermitian manifolds, which generalizes a related result on Sasakian manifolds in \cite{SSZ2013holomorphic}. Next, we investigate critical maps of the partial energy functionals, which are referred to as $\overline{\partial }_{b}$-harmonic maps and $\partial _{b}$-harmonic maps. We give a foliated result for both $\overline{\partial }_{b}$- and $\partial _{b}$-harmonic maps, generalizing a foliated result of Petit \cite{Pet2002harmonic} for harmonic maps. Then we are able to generalize Siu's holomorphicity result for harmonic maps \cite{Siu1980rigid} to the case for $\overline{\partial }_{b}$- and $\partial _{b}$-harmonic maps.
