报告摘要：
Inthis talk, I will describe the simplified version of Ericksen andLeslie that models the hydrodynamic flow of nematic liquid crystals,which is a governing equation for the macroscopic continuumdescription of evolution of the material under the influence of bothfluid velocity field and the macroscopic average of themicroscopic orientation of rod-like liquid crystal molecules. I willindicate two ways to construct the finite time singularities forsuch a flow equation for suitably chosen initial data.
