报告摘要:
In 1964, Eells-Sampson proved the celebrated long-time existence and convergence for the harmonic map heat flow into non-positively curved Riemannian manifolds. In 1992, Gromov and Schoen initiated the study of harmonic maps into CAT(0) metric spaces. In the 1990s, Mayer and Jost independently obtained the weak solutions for the harmonic map heat flow into CAT(0) spaces. The weak solutions enjoy the favorable long-time existence, uniqueness and well-established long-time behaviors. It remained an open question to ask if the weak solutions possess the Lipschitz regularity. Recently, Lin, Segatti, Sire, and Wang obtained a partial answer. They used elliptic approximation method to prove that the weak solutions are Lipschitz in space and 1/2 -Hölder continuous in time, for a wide class of CAT(0) spaces.
In this talk I report my joint work with Hui-Chun Zhang to give a complete answer to the question. We show that every weak solution of the harmonic map heat flow into CAT(0) spaces is Lipschitz continuous in both space and time. We also establish an Eells-Sampson-type Bochner inequality. Very recently, Lin and Wang obtained an alternative proof.
