On the propagation of regularity for solutions of the Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation

Abstract: In this work, we study some special properties of smoothness concerning to the initial value problem associated with the Zakharov-Kuznetsov-(ZK) equation in the $n-$ dimensional setting, $n\geq 2.$ It is known that the solutions of the ZK equation in the $2d$ and $3d$ cases verify special regularity properties. More precisely, the regularity of the initial data on a family of half-spaces propagates with infinite speed. Our objective in this work is to extend this analysis to the case in that the regularity of the initial data is measured on a fractional scale. To describe this phenomenon we present new localization formulas that allow us to portray the regularity of the solution on a certain class of subsets of the euclidean space.
