Abstract

We use a non-local maximum principle to prove the global existence of smooth solutions for a slightly supercritical surface quasi-geostrophic equation. By this we mean that the velocity field u is obtained from the active scalar by a Fourier multiplier with symbol iζ |ζ| -1m(|ζ|), where m is a smooth increasing function that grows slower than log log|ζ| as |ζ| → ∞.
