Abstract: Regularity and singularity of the solutions according to the shape of domains is a challenging research theme in the Boltzmann theory (cite{Kim11,GKTT1}). In this paper, we prove an H"older regularity in Cx,v0,frac12 for the Boltzmann equation of the hard-sphere molecule, which undergoes the elastic reflection in the intermolecular collision and the contact with the boundary of a convex obstacle. In particular, this H"older regularity result is a stark contrast to the case of other physical boundary conditions (such as the diffuse reflection boundary condition and in-flow boundary condition), for which the solutions of the Boltzmann equation develop discontinuity in a codimension 1 subset (cite{Kim11}), and therefore the best possible regularity is BV, which has been proved in cite{GKTT2}.
