Existence of distributional solutions of a modified Surface Quasi-Geostrophic equation (mSQG) is proven for $\mu$-almost every initial condition, where $\mu$ is a suitable Gaussian measure. The result is the by-product of existence of a…
The purpose of this work is to discuss the well-posedness theory of singular vortex patches. Our main results are of two types: well-posedness and ill-posedness. On the well-posedness side, we show that globally $m-$fold symmetric vortex…
