Abstract

The present paper gives a simplified presentation of a partial regularity result obtained in a joint work with M. P. Gualdani, C. Imbert and A. Vasseur [arXiv:1906.02841 [math.AP]] for the spatially homogeneous Landau equation with Coulomb interaction in three space dimensions. Specifically, we prove that the procedure used in [C. Villani: Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 143 (1998), 273–307] to construct H-solutions of the Landau equation leads to a class of weak solutions satisfying a truncated relative entropy estimate for values of the distribution function larger than any arbitrary level κ> 0. Using the method introduced in [E. De Giorgi: Mem. Accad. Sci. Torino Cl. Sci. Fis. Mat. Nat., 3 (1957), 25–43] for studying the regularity of parabolic equations with bounded diffusion coefficients, we prove that the set of singular times of any such solution has Hausdorff dimension at most 1/2.
