Abstract: We consider the energy critical semilinear heat equation partial_tu=Delta u+|u|^{frac{4}{d-2}}u, xin mathbb R^d and give a complete classification of the flow near the ground state solitary wave Q(x)=frac{1}{left( 1+frac{|x|^2}{d(d-2)} ight)^{frac{d-2}{2}}} in dimension dge7, in the energy critical topology and without radial symmetry assumption. Given an initial data Q+varepsilon0 with parallelablavarepsilon0parallelL2ll1, the solution either blows up in the ODE type I regime, or dissipates, and these two open sets are separated by a codimension one set of solutions asymptotically attracted by the solitary wave. In particular, non self similar type II blow up is ruled out in dimension dge7 near the solitary wave even though it is known to occur in smaller dimensions. Our proof is based on sole energy estimates deeply and draws a route map for the classification of the flow near the solitary wave in the energy critical setting. A by-product of our method is the classification of minimal elements around Q belonging to the unstable manifold.
