Abstract: Motivated by a challenging expectation of Rivi`ere (2011), in the recent interesting work of deLongueville-Gastel (2019), de Longueville and Gastel proposed the following geometrical even order elliptic system �egin{equation*} Delta^{m}u=sum_{l=0}^{m-1}Delta^{l}leftlangle V_{l},du ight angle +sum_{l=0}^{m-2}Delta^{l}deltaleft(w_{l}du ight)qquad ext{ in } B^{2m}label{eq: Longue-Gastel system} end{equation*} which includes polyharmonic mappings as special cases. Under minimal regularity assumptions on the coefficient functions and an additional algebraic antisymmetry assumption on the first order potential, they successfully established a conservation law for this system, from which everywhere continuity of weak solutions follows. This beautiful result amounts to a significant advance in the expectation of Rivi`ere. In this paper, we seek for the optimal interior regularity of the above system, aiming at a more complete solution to the aforementioned expectation of Rivi`ere. Combining their conservation law and some new ideas together, we obtain optimal H"older continuity and sharp Lp regularity theory, similar to that of Sharp and Topping cite{Sharp-Topping-2013-TAMS}, for weak solutions to a related inhomogeneous system. Our results can be applied to study heat flow and bubbling analysis for polyharmonic mappings.
