Global solutions of a surface quasigeostrophic front equation

John K. Hunter, Jingyang Shu and Qingtian Zhang

Vol. 3 (2021), No. 3, 403–472
DOI: 10.2140/paa.2021.3.403
Abstract

We consider a nonlinear, spatially nonlocal initial value problem in one space dimension on that describes the motion of surface quasigeostrophic (SQG) fronts. We prove that the initial value problem has a unique local smooth solution under a convergence condition on the multilinear expansion of the nonlinear term in the equation, and, for sufficiently smooth and small initial data, we prove that the solution is global.
