A well-known theorem by Ruh and Vilms states that the Laplacian of the Gauss map for a smooth immersion into Euclidean space is given by the covariant derivative of the mean curvature vector field. For hypersurfaces, this implies that the Gauss map is harmonic iff the mean curvature is constant. In
