Higher Hölder regularity for nonlocal parabolic equations with irregular kernels (Q6132781)

In this paper, the authors prove Hölder regularity for the parabolic equation \begin{align*} \partial_t u - \mathrm{pv}\int\limits_{\mathbb{R}^n}\Phi(u(x,t)-u(y,t))\frac{A(x,y,t)}{|x-y|^{n+2s}}\,dy=f, \end{align*} where \(\Phi:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) satisfies \(\Phi(0)=0\) and standard growth conditions \begin{align*} (\Phi(\xi)-\Phi(\xi'))(\xi-\xi')\gtrsim |\xi-\xi'|^2,\\ |\Phi(\xi)-\Phi(\xi')|\lesssim|\xi-\xi'|, \end{align*} \(A:\mathbb{R}^n\times\mathbb{R}^n\times\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) is measurable function bounded from above and below, which is ``locally close enough to being translation invariant'', and \(f\) satisfies a suitable integrability condition. This condition allows for discontinuous kernels. For \(\Phi(t)=t\) and \(A=1\), the equation is the fractional heat equation. The condition on \(A\) is a parabolic version of the condition presented for nonlocal elliptic equations in [\textit{S. Nowak}, Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. 60, No. 1, Paper No. 24, 37 p. (2021; Zbl 1509.35087)]. The proofs use a perturbation argument similar to [\textit{S. Nowak}, Calc. Var. Partial Differ. Equ. 60, No. 1, Paper No. 24, 37 p. (2021; Zbl 1509.35087)] and the method of iterated discrete differentiation from [\textit{L. Brasco} et al., J. Evol. Equ. 21, No. 4, 4319--4381 (2021; Zbl 1486.35084)]. Additionally, the authors prove existence and local boundedness for this equation without the extra constraint on \(A\).
