Almost optimal local well-posedness of the Maxwell-Klein-Gordon equations in 1+4 dimensions
Abstract
Description
We prove that the Maxwell-Klein-Gordon equations on $\R^{1+4}$ relative to the Coulomb gauge are locally well-posed for initial data in $H^{1+ε}$ for all $ε> 0$. This builds on previous work by Klainerman and Machedon who proved the corresponding result for a model problem derived from the Maxwell-Klein-Gordon system by ignoring the elliptic features of the system, as well as cubic terms.
