In this paper we consider the inviscid 2D Boussinesq equation on the Sobolev spaces $H^s(\R^2)$, $s > 2$. Using a geometric approach we show that for any $T > 0$ the corresponding solution map, $(u(0),\theta(0)) \mapsto (u(T),\theta(T))$,…

In this work, we focus on a recent variant of the Trudinger-Moser-Onofri inequality introduced by S. Y. Alice Chang and Changfeng Gui \cite{CG-2023}: \begin{align*} \alpha\int_{\mathbb{S}^2}|\nabla_{\mathbb{S}^2}u|^2 {\rm d}\omega+2…
