Title: Nonlocal Maximum Principles for Active Scalars
Abstract: Active scalar equations appear in many instances in fluid mechanics. Examples include 2D Euler, Burgers, and surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equations. In the past few years, several new approaches have been developed to study the properties of solutions in critical and supercritical regime.
I will review the techniques based on control of moduli of continuity of the solutions. I will then talk about recent results in the supercritical regime, including finite time regularization of solutions for SQG and Burgers, and global regularity for slightly supercritical SQG equation.
