Extrinsic bi-Conformal Heat Flow and its smoothness

Differential Geometry 2026-03-05 v1

Abstract

In this paper we introduce conformal heat flow of (extrinsic) biharmonic maps on 44-manifold, simply called bi-conformal heat flow (bi-CHF), and study its properties. Similar to other CHF of harmonic maps and regularized nn-harmonic maps, (CHF and regularized nn-CHF respectively), we obtain global smoothness and no finite time singularity.
