Harmonic map flow for almost-holomorphic maps

Abstract

Let $\Sigma$ be a compact oriented surface and $N$ a compact Kähler manifold with nonnegative holomorphic bisectional curvature. For a solution of harmonic map flow starting from an almost-holomorphic map $\Sigma \to N$ (in the energy sense), the limit at each singular time extends continuously over the bubble points and no necks appear.
