Abstract

In this article, we consider nonlinear elliptic systems of divergence type with Dini continuous coefficients. The authors use a new method introduced by Duzaar and Grotowski, to prove partial regularity for weak solutions, based on a generalization of the technique of harmonic
approximation and directly establish the optimal H\"{o}lder exponent for the derivative of a weak solution on its regular set.
