Abstract
We investigate the regularity of weak solutions of the relativistic Vlasov–Maxwell system by using Fourier analysis and the smoothing effect of low velocity particles. This smoothing effect has been used by several authors (see Glassey and Strauss 1986; Klainerman and Staffilani, 2002) for proving existence and uniqueness of [Formula: see text]-regular solutions of the Vlasov–Maxwell system. This smoothing mechanism has also been used to study the regularity of solutions for a kinetic transport equation coupled with a wave equation (see Bouchut, Golse and Pallard 2004). Under the same assumptions as in the paper “Nonresonant smoothing for coupled wave[Formula: see text]+[Formula: see text]transport equations and the Vlasov–Maxwell system”, Rev. Mat. Iberoamericana 20 (2004) 865–892, by Bouchut, Golse and Pallard, we prove a slightly better regularity for the electromagnetic field than the one showed in the latter paper. Namely, we prove that the electromagnetic field belongs to [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text].
期刊介绍:
This journal publishes original research papers on nonlinear hyperbolic problems and related topics, of mathematical and/or physical interest. Specifically, it invites papers on the theory and numerical analysis of hyperbolic conservation laws and of hyperbolic partial differential equations arising in mathematical physics. The Journal welcomes contributions in:
Theory of nonlinear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws, addressing the issues of well-posedness and qualitative behavior of solutions, in one or several space dimensions.
Hyperbolic differential equations of mathematical physics, such as the Einstein equations of general relativity, Dirac equations, Maxwell equations, relativistic fluid models, etc.
Lorentzian geometry, particularly global geometric and causal theoretic aspects of spacetimes satisfying the Einstein equations.
Nonlinear hyperbolic systems arising in continuum physics such as: hyperbolic models of fluid dynamics, mixed models of transonic flows, etc.
General problems that are dominated (but not exclusively driven) by finite speed phenomena, such as dissipative and dispersive perturbations of hyperbolic systems, and models from statistical mechanics and other probabilistic models relevant to the derivation of fluid dynamical equations.
Convergence analysis of numerical methods for hyperbolic equations: finite difference schemes, finite volumes schemes, etc.
