Title: Partial compactness for the 2-D Landau-Lifshitz flow Author: Paul Harpes (ETH Zurich, Switzerland) Abstract: Uniform local $C^\infty$-bounds for Ginzburg-Landau type approximations for the Landau-Lifshitz flow on planar domains are proven. They hold outside an energy-concentration set of locally finite parabolic Hausdorff-dimension 2, which has finite times-slices. The approximations subconverge to a global weak solution of the Landau-Lifshitz flow, which is smooth away from the energy concentration set. The same results hold for sequences of global smooth solutions of the 2-d Landau-Lifshitz flow. Submitted September 11, 2003. Published July 5, 2004.
