Abstract

We examine the question of uniqueness for the equivariant reduction of the harmonic map heat flow in the energy supercritical dimension d ≥ 3. It is shown that, generically, singular data can give rise to two distinct solutions that are both stable and satisfy the local energy inequality. We also discuss how uniqueness can be retrieved.
