For a very strong diffusion equation like total variation flow it is often observed that the solution stops at a steady state in a finite time. This phenomenon is called a finite time stopping or a finite time extinction if the steady state is zero. Such a phenomenon is also observed in one-harmonic map flow from an interval to a unit circle when initial data is piecewise constant. However, if the target manifold is a unit two-dimensional sphere, the finite time stopping may not occur. An explicit example is given in this paper.
Keywords: total variation flow., singular diffusion, extinction, One-harmonic map flow, finite time stopping.
