Professor John C. Wood (born 1949) is a British mathematician working at the University of Leeds.[1] He is one of the leading experts on harmonic maps and harmonic morphisms in the field of differential geometry.[2]

Wood is a coauthor of the monograph: Harmonic Morphisms Between Riemannian Manifolds. This was published in 2003 and is still the standard text on the subject.[3]

Wood earned his PhD from the University of Warwick in 1974, under the supervision of James Eells. His doctoral students have included Sigmundur Gudmundsson and Stefano Montaldo.[4]
