Smooth long-time existence of Harmonic Ricci Flow on surfaces

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 consequence, we obtain smooth long-time existence for the Harmonic...

Summary: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 consequence, we obtain smooth long-time existence for the Harmonic Ricci Flow with large coupling constant.
