Abstract: The motion of a collisionless plasma is modeled by solutions to the Vlasov–Maxwell system. The Cauchy problem for the relativistic Vlasov–Maxwell system is studied in the case when the phase space distribution function f = f(t,x,v) depends on the time t, and . Global existence of classical solutions is obtained for smooth data of unrestricted size. A sufficient condition for global smooth solvability is known from [12]: smooth solutions can break down only if particles of the plasma approach the speed of light. An a priori bound is obtained on the velocity support of the distribution function, from which the result follows.
