Nonlocal maximum principles for active scalars

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

Active scalars appear in many problems of fluid dynamics. The most common examples of active scalar equations are 2D Euler, Burgers, and 2D surface quasi-geostrophic equations. Many questions about regularity and properties of solutions of these equations remain open. We develop the idea of nonlocal maximum principle, formulating a more general criterion and providing new applications. The most interesting application is finite time regularization of weak solutions in the supercritical regime.
