Local well-posedness for the 2D non-dissipative quasi-geostrophic equation in Besov spaces Original Research Article

In this paper we prove the local-in-time well-posedness for the 2D non-dissipative quasi-geostrophic equation, and study the blow-up criterion in the critical Besov spaces. These results improve the previous one by Constantin et al. [P. Constantin, A. Majda, E. Tabak, Formation of strong fronts in the 2D quasi-geostrophic thermal active scalar, Nonlinearity 7 (1994) 1495–1533].
