Global regularity for 2D Boussinesq temperature patches with no diffusion
Abstract: This paper considers the temperature patch problem for the incompressible Boussinesq system with no diffusion and viscosity in the whole space $\mathbb{R}2$. We prove that for initial patches with $W{2,\infty}$ boundary the curvature remains bounded for all time. The proof explores new cancellations that allow us to bound $\nabla2u$, even for those components given by time dependent singular integrals with kernels with nonzero mean on circles. In addition, we give a different proof of the $C{1+\gamma}$ regularity result in [23], $0<\gamma<1$, using the scale of Sobolev spaces for the velocity. Furthermore, taking advantage of the new cancellations, we go beyond to show the persistence of regularity for $C{2+\gamma}$ patches.
