Partial regularity for non autonomous functionals with non standard growth conditions

We prove a C ^1,μ partial regularity result for minimizers of a non autonomous integral funcitional of the form $$\mathcal{F}(u; \Omega):=\int_{\Omega}f(x, Du)\ dx$$ under the so-called non standard growth conditions. More precisely we assume that $$c |z|^{p}\leq f(x ,z) \leq L (1+|z|^{q}),$$ for 2 ≤ p < q and that D _z f(x, z) is α-Hölder continuous with respect to the x-variable. The regularity is obtained imposing that ${\frac{p}{q} < \frac{n+\alpha}{n}}$ but without any assumption on the growth of ${D^{2}_{z}f}$ .
