On the propagation of Regularity for Solutions of the Zakharov-Kuznetsov Equation

In this paper, we focus on the Zakharov–Kuznetsov (ZK) equation in the [Formula: see text]-dimensional setting with [Formula: see text] and investigate its smoothness properties. We extend the well-known regularity propagation phenomenon observed in the 2D and 3D cases, where the regularity of the initial data on certain half-spaces propagates with infinite speed, to the case where the regularity of the initial data is measured on a fractional scale. To achieve this, we introduce new localization formulas that enable us to describe the regularity of the solution on a specific class of subsets in Euclidean space. This work provides insights into the regularity behavior of solutions of the ZK equation in higher dimensions and with more general initial data.
