We prove that the inviscid surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equations are strongly ill-posed in critical Sobolev spaces: there exists an initial data $H^{2}(\bbT^2)$ without any solutions in $L^\infty_{t}H^{2}$. Moreover, we prove strong…
In this paper, we consider a family of piecewise constant solutions of the quasi-geostrophic shallow-water (QGSW) equation. We derive the contour dynamics equation of the QGSW front, which is a nonlinear, nonlocal dispersive equation, and…
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…
We consider the cubic non-linear Schr\"odinger equation on general closed (compact without boundary) Riemannian surfaces. The problem is known to be locally well-posed in $H^s(M)$ for $s>1/2$. Global well-posedness for $s\geq 1$ follows…

Quasi-geostrophic flow is an asymptotic theory for flows in rotating systems that are in geostrophic balance to leading order. It is characterized by the conservation of (quasi-geostrophic) potential vorticity and weak vertical flows.…

We study solutions to the $\alpha$-SQG equations, which interpolate between the incompressible Euler and surface quasi-geostrophic equations. We extend prior results on existence of bounded patches, proving propagation of $H^k$-regularity…
In recent work, two of the authors proposed a broad global well-posedness conjecture for cubic quasilinear dispersive equations in two space dimensions, which asserts that global well-posedness and scattering holds for small initial data in…
Models under location uncertainty are derived assuming that a component of the velocity is uncorrelated in time. The material derivative is accordingly modified to include an advection correction, inhomogeneous and anisotropic diffusion…
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 construct solutions in $\mathbb{R}^2$ with finite energy of the surface quasi-geostrophic equations (SQG) that initially are in $C^k$ ($k\geq 2$) but that are not in $C^{k}$ for $t>0$. We prove a similar result also for $H^{s}$ in the…
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…
This paper is concerned with the Cauchy problem of the quadratic nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation in $\mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^2$ with the nonlinearity $\eta |u|^2$ where $\eta \in \mathbb{C} \setminus \{0\}$ and low regularity…

We prove that the cubic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (both focusing and defocusing) is globally well-posed in $H^s(\mathbb R)$ for any regularity $s>-\frac12$. Well-posedness has long been known for $s\geq 0$, see [55], but not…
We consider the Cauchy problem for an equation of the form \partial_t+\partial_x^3)u=F(u,u_x,u_{xx}) where F is a polynomial with no constant or linear terms and no quadratic uu_{xx} term. For a polynomial nonlinearity with no quadratic…
This paper studies a family of generalized surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equations for an active scalar $\theta$ on the whole plane whose velocities have been mildly regularized, for instance, logarithmically. The well-posedness of these…
