Given a closed Riemannian manifold M, we construct a suitable class of perturbations to achieve Morse-Smale transversality for the heat equation.
The heat equation is a parabolic PDE for maps from the
cylinder to M which arises as the negative L2 gradient equation of the
Riemannian energy functional and the perturbations take the form of
smooth functions on the free loop space of M satisfying certain axioms.
