| contents | We study the infinitesimal rigidity of equivariant minimal maps from the universal cover of a smooth oriented surface (possibly non-compact) into a Riemannian symmetric space, focusing on representations arising from cyclic harmonic bundles. By developing a unified Lie-theoretic framework that connects cyclic surfaces and cyclic harmonic bundles over Riemann surfaces, we prove the infinitesimal rigidity for irreducible cyclic surfaces under admissible smooth variations, including both compactly supported deformations and $L^p$-integrable variations on non-compact surfaces. As a geometric application, we introduce $n$-alternating surfaces in $\mathbb H^{p,q}$ and establish their correspondence with a special class of cyclic surfaces. This yields an infinitesimal rigidity theorem that conceptually unifies and extends known rigidity results for maximal space-like surfaces, alternating holomorphic curves, and $A$-surfaces in certain $\mathbb H^{p,q}$. |
