Topping's conjecture for solutions of harmonic map flow with isolated bubbles
Abstract
By establishing a weighted Lojasiewicz-Simon inequality for maps which are close to a fixed harmonic map modulo scaling, we prove Topping's conjecture on continuity of the body map in the case of finite time singularities at which only isolated bubbles form.
