Strichartz estimates and moment bounds for the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system I. The $2$-D and $2\frac{1}{2}$-D cases

Abstract

Consider the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system with initial data of unrestricted size. In the two dimensional and the two and a half dimensional cases, Glassey-Schaeffer (1997, 1998, 1998) proved that for regular initial data with compact momentum support this system has unique global in time classical solutions. In this work we do not assume compact momentum support for the initial data and instead require only that the data have polynomial decay in momentum space. In the 2D and the $2\frac{1}{2}$D cases, we prove the global existence, uniqueness and regularity for solutions arising from this class of initial data. To this end we use Strichartz estimates and prove that suitable moments of the solution remain bounded. Moreover, we obtain a slight improvement of the temporal growth of the $L_x^{\infty }$ norms of the electromagnetic fields compared to Glassey-Schaeffer.
