Abstract: We consider the energy critical harmonic heat flow from BbbR2 into a smooth compact revolution surface of BbbR3. For initial data with corotational symmetry, the evolution reduces to the semilinear radially symmetric parabolic problem partial_t u -pa^2_{r} u-frac{pa_r u}{r} + frac{f(u)}{r^2}=0 for a suitable class of functions f . Given an integer LinBbbN, we exhibit a set of initial data arbitrarily close to the least energy harmonic map Q in the energy critical topology such that the corresponding solution blows up in finite time by concentrating its energy

abla u(t,r)-

abla Q(frac{r}{l(t)}) o u^* in L^2 at a speed given by the {it quantized} rates: l(t)=c(u_0)(1+o(1))frac{(T-t)^L}{|log (T-t)|^{frac{2L}{2L-1}}}, in accordance with the formal predictions [3]. The case L=1 corresponds to the stable regime exhibited in [37], and the data for Lge2 leave on a manifold of codimension (L1) in some weak sense. Our analysis lies in the continuation of [36,32,37] by further exhibiting the mechanism for the existence of the excited slow blow up rates and the associated instability of these threshold dynamics.
