Abstract

We examine the regularity of the solution of a quasilinear system involving the curl of vector fields. This system arises in the mathematical theory of superconductivity. The C2+α regularity was obtained by Bates and Pan under the condition that Ω is simply connected and has no holes, and that the normal component of the curl of the boundary data vanishes. The aim of this paper is to remove these technical restrictions on the topology of the domain and on the boundary data. By carefully studying the related quasilinear Neumann problem, we obtain the C2+α regularity without assuming these technical conditions.
