Partial regularity of suitable weak solutions of the model arising in amorphous molecular beam epitaxy

Abstract

In this paper, we are concerned with the precise relationship between the Hausdorff dimension of possible singular point set $\mathcal{S}$ of suitable weak solutions and the parameter $\alpha$ in the nonlinear term in the following parabolic equation $$h_t+h_{xxxx}+{\partial }_{xx}|h_x{|}^{\alpha }=f.$$ It is shown that when $5/3\le \alpha <7/3$, the $\frac{3\alpha -5}{\alpha -1}$-dimensional parabolic Hausdorff measure of $\mathcal{S}$ is zero, which generalizes the recent corresponding work of Ozánski and Robinson in [31,SIAM J. Math. Anal. 51: 228--255, 2019] for $\alpha =2$ and $f=0$. The same result is valid for a 3D modified Navier-Stokes system.
