  1. Abstract We consider the 1-equivariant energy critical wave maps problem with two-sphere target. Using a method based on matched asymptotic expansions, we construct infinite time relaxation, blow-up, and intermediate types of solutions that have topological degree one. More precisely, for a symbol class of admissible, time-dependent length scales, we construct solutions which can be decomposed as a ground state harmonic map (soliton) re-scaled by an admissible length scale, plus radiation, and small corrections which vanish (in a suitable sense) as time approaches infinity. Our class of admissible length scales includes positive and negative powers of t, with exponents sufficiently small in absolute value. In addition, we obtain solutions with soliton length scale undergoing damped or undamped oscillations in a bounded set, or undergoing unbounded oscillations, for all sufficiently large t.
