This paper establishes several existence and uniqueness results for two families of active scalar equations with velocity fields determined by the scalars through very singular integrals. The first family is a generalized surface…
The generalized surface quasi-geostrophic (GSQG) equations are transport equations for an active scalar that depend on a parameter $0<\alpha \le 2$. Special cases are the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations ($\alpha = 2$) and the…

We study the rate of growth of sharp fronts of the Quasi-geostrophic equation and 2D incompressible Euler equations.. The development of sharp fronts are due to a mechanism that piles up level sets very fast. Under a semi-uniform collapse,…

We consider a family of contour dynamics equations depending on a parameter $\al$ with $0<\alpha\leq 1$. The vortex patch problem of the 2-D Euler equation is obtained taking $\alpha\to 0$, and the case $\alpha=1$ corresponds to a sharp…

Any classical solution of the 2D incompressible Euler equation is global in time. However, it remains an outstanding open problem whether classical solutions of the surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation preserve their regularity for all…
In this paper we paralinearize the contour dynamics equation for sharp-fronts of $\alpha$-SQG, for any $ \alpha \in (0,1) \cup (1,2) $, close to a circular vortex. This turns out to be a quasi-linear Hamiltonian PDE. After deriving the…
This paper proposes a refinement of the usual concept of algebraic quantum field theories (AQFTs) to theories that are smooth in the sense that they assign to every smooth family of spacetimes a smooth family of observable algebras. Using…

In this paper, we study the deformation of the n-dimensional strictly convex hypersurface in $\mathbb R^{n+1}$ whose speed at a point on the hypersurface is proportional to $\alpha$-power of positive part of Gauss Curvature. For…
This paper is about the evolution of a temperature front governed by the Surface quasi-geostrophic equation. The existence part of that program within the scale of Sobolev spaces was obtained by one of the authors [10]. Here we revisit that…
