We prove local well-posedness as well as singularity formation for the g-SQG patch model on the plane (so on a domain without a boundary), with $\alpha\in(0,\frac 16]$ and patches being allowed to touch each other. We do this by bypassing…

We study the patch dynamics on the whole plane and on the half-plane for a family of active scalars called modified SQG equations. These involve a parameter $\alpha$ which appears in the power of the kernel in their Biot-Savart laws and…

We consider the inviscid generalized surface quasi-geostrophic equation (gSQG) in a patch setting, where the parameter $\alpha \in (1,2)$. The cases $\alpha = 0$ and $\alpha = 1$ correspond to 2d Euler and SQG respectively, and our choice…

We introduce and analyze a class of Surface Quasi-Geostrophic (SQG) equations in the presence of moving rigid obstacles. The model is motivated both by vortex-wave type asymptotics for singular structures in active scalar equations and by…
It is well known that the incompressible Euler equations in two dimensions have globally regular solutions. The inviscid surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation has a Biot-Savart law which is one derivative less regular than in the Euler…
