Global weak solutions of the Teichmüller harmonic map flow into general targets
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. Moreover, we prove a noloss-of-topology result at finite time,...
