Abstract: We consider degenerate Kolmogorov-Fokker-Planck operators ${\displaystyle }$ mathcal{L}u=sum_{i,j=1}^{q}a_{ij}(x,t)partial_{x_{i}x_{j}}^{2}u+sum_{k,j=1}^{N}b_{jk}x_{k}partial_{x_{j}}u-partial_{t}u,qquad (x,t)inmathbb{R}^{N+1},Ngeq qgeq1 ${\displaystyle }$ such that the corresponding model operator having constant $a_{ij}$ is hypoelliptic, translation invariant w.r.t. a Lie group operation in $mathbb{R}^{N+1}$ and $2$-homogeneous w.r.t. a family of nonisotropic dilations. The coefficients $a_{ij}$ are bounded and H"{o}lder continuous in space (w.r.t. some distance induced by $mathcalL$ in $mathbb{R}^N$) and only bounded measurable in time; the matrix ${a_{ij}}_{i,j=1}^q$ is symmetric and uniformly positive on $mathbb{R}^q$. We prove "partial Schauder a priori estimates" the kind ${\displaystyle }$ sum_{i,j=1}^{q}Vertpartial_{x_{i}x_{j}}^{2}uVert_{C_{x}^{alpha}(S_{T})}+Vert YuVert_{C_{x}^{alpha}(S_{T})}leq cleft{ Vertmathcal{L}uVert _{C_{x}^{alpha}(S_{T})}+Vert uVert_{C^{0}(S_{T})} ight} ${\displaystyle }$ for suitable functions $u$, where ${\displaystyle }$ Vert fVert_{C_{x}^{alpha}(S_{T})}=sup_{tleq T}sup_{x_{1},x_{2}inmathbb{R}^{N},x_{1} eq x_{2}}frac{leftvert fleft( x_{1},t ight) -fleft( x_{2},t ight) ightvert }{leftVert x_{1}-x_{2} ightVert ^{alpha}}. ${\displaystyle }$ We also prove that the derivatives $partia{l}_{x_i{x}_j}^{2}u$ are locally H"{o}lder continuous in space and time while $partia{l}_{x_i}u$ and $u$ are globally H"{o}lder continuous in space and time.
