Abstract: We address the persistence of H"older continuity for weak solutions of the linear drift-diffusion equation with nonlocal pressure [ u_t + b cdot grad u - lap u = grad p,qquad gradcdot u =0 ] on $[0,infty)imes{R}^n$, with $ngeq2$. The drift velocity $b$ is assumed to be at the critical regularity level, with respect to the natural scaling of the equations. The proof draws on Campanato's characterization of H"older spaces, and uses a maximum-principle-type argument by which we control the growth in time of certain local averages of $u$. We provide an estimate that does not depend on any local smallness condition on the vector field $b$, but only on scale invariant quantities.

Review text

The authors consider the evolution equation NEWLINE\[NEWLINEu_t + b\nabla u-\Delta u = \nabla p,NEWLINE\]NEWLINE where \(b\) is a divergence free vector and \(p\) is the pressure. By applying in a deep way an integral characterization of Hölder spaces due to Campanato, the authors are able to prove the Hölder continuity of the solution. In the case of remotion of pressure, DaPrato and his school, by using a different approach, studied the regularity in \(L^p\) spaces and in \(C^\alpha\) spaces in the case that the divergence of the drift term \(b\) is bounded. DaPrato's techniques seem to be not applicable in the case of the presence of pressure.
