Abstract:
In this talk I will present a new type of flow, called conformal heat flow of harmonic maps. First, I introduce known behaviors of heat flow of harmonic map, including finite time bubbling. Then I introduce the conformal heat flow which is designed to delay such finite time singularities and show some properties of it, including existence of Struwe-type global weak solution.
