Abstract: We study the regularity of the extremal solution of the semilinear biharmonic equation $$ on a ball $Bsubset{R}^N$, under Navier boundary conditions $u=Deltau=0$ on $partialB$, where $lambda>0$ is a parameter, while $au>0$, $$ are fixed constants. It is known that there exists a $lambd{a}^{\ast }$ such that for $lambda>lambd{a}^{\ast }$ there is no solution while for $lambda<lambd{a}^{\ast }$ there is a branch of minimal solutions. Our main result asserts that the extremal solution $u^{\ast }$ is regular ($su{p}_B{u}^{\ast }<1$) for $Nleq8$ and $$ and it is singular ($su{p}_B{u}^{\ast }=1$) for $Ngeq9$, $$, and $au>0$ with $$ small. Our proof for the singularity of extremal solutions in dimensions $Ngeq9$ is based on certain improved Hardy-Rellich inequalities.
