One-dimensional harmonic map flow with low regularity

My question is the following: What is the minimum regularity for a continuous loop $\gamma: S^1 \rightarrow M$ in a Riemannian manifold $M$ to have short-time existence for the harmonic map flow in ...

$ \varepsilon $-regularity, harmonic maps vs harmonic heat flow

Let $ \Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n $ be a bounded domain with smooth boundary and $ (N,h)\subset\mathbb{R}^L $ is a smooth compact Riemannian manifold. Consider the local minimizer $ u\in W^{1,2}(\Omega,...

Local smoothness of harmonic heat flow

Assume that $ (M,g) $ is a smooth closed manifold and $ \mathbb{S}^{L-1} $ is a unit sphere with dimension $ L-1 $ in $ \mathbb{R}^{L} $. Consider the equation of harmonic heat flow $$ \partial_tu-\...
