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)imesRn, 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.
