Abstract

This paper devotes to establish an improved regularity criterion for weak solution of 3D incompressible MHD equations. We show that the weak solution is regular, provided that

$$\begin{aligned} \int _{0}^{T}{\frac{\Vert \pi (\cdot ,t)\Vert _{\dot{B}_{\infty ,\infty }^{-1}}^{2}}{\left( e+\ln \left( e+\Vert \pi (\cdot ,t)\Vert _{\dot{B} _{\infty ,\infty }^{-1}}\right) \right) \ln \left( e+\ln \left( e+\Vert \pi (\cdot ,t)\Vert _{\dot{B}_{\infty ,\infty }^{-1}}\right) \right) }}\ dt<\infty . \end{aligned}$$

As a consequence, this improves some previous works.
