We are interested in the local Hölder exponents of distributional solutions ψ, assuming local L p integrability of the functions V and f. By standard arguments, we obtain the formula 2 s− N∕ p for the local Hölder exponent of ψ where we take some extra care regarding endpoint cases. For our main result, we assume that V and f (but not necessarily ψ) are radial functions, a situation which is commonplace in applications. We find that the regularity theory “becomes one dimensional” in the sense that the Hölder exponent improves from 2 s− N∕ p to 2 s− 1∕ p away from the origin. Similar results hold for∇ ψ as well.text::journal::journal article::research article
