We study blowup solutions of the 6D energy critical heat equation $u_t=\Delta u+|u|^{p-1}u$ in $\R^n\times(0,T)$. A goal of this paper is to show the existence of type II blowup solutions predicted by Filippas, Herrero and Vel\'azquez…

We study $O(d)$-equivariant biharmonic maps in the critical dimension. A major consequence of our study concerns the corresponding heat flow. More precisely, we prove that blowup occurs in the biharmonic map heat flow from $B^4(0, 1)$ into…

We prove that at a finite singular time for the Harmonic Ricci Flow on a surface of positive genus both the energy density of the map component and the curvature of the domain manifold have to blow up simultaneously. As an immediate…

We analyse finite-time singularities of the Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow -- a natural gradient flow of the harmonic map energy -- and find a canonical way of flowing beyond them in order to construct global solutions in full generality.…

We consider the initial-boundary value problem of a simplified nematic liquid crystal flow in a bounded, smooth domain $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^2$. Given any $k$ distinct points in the domain, we develop a new {\em inner--outer gluing…

We consider the harmonic heat flow for maps from a compact Riemannian manifold into a Riemannian manifold that is complete and of non-positive curvature. We prove that if the harmonic heat flow converges to a limiting harmonic map that is a…

In this short paper, we show that K\"ahler-Ricci flows over closed manifolds would have scalar curvature blown-up for finite time singularity. Certain control of the blowing-up is achieved with some mild assumption.
