Professor In-Jee Jeong's research lab specializes in nonlinear partial differential equations arising in fluid dynamics, with a primary focus on the mathematical analysis of the Euler and surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equations. The lab investigates fundamental questions related to well-posedness, ill-posedness, norm inflation, and the loss of regularity in critical and supercritical function spaces. Key themes include the formation of singularities, vorticity growth, and the behavior of solutions in both bounded and unbounded domains, often employing advanced techniques from harmonic analysis and dynamical systems.

We prove that the inviscid surface quasigeostrophic (SQG) equations are strongly ill-posed in critical Sobolev spaces: there exists an initial data H 2 ޔ( 2 ) without any solutions in L ∞ t H 2 .Moreover, we prove strong critical norm inflation for C ∞ -smooth data.Our proof is robust and extends to give similar ill-posedness results for the family of modified SQG equations which interpolate the SQG with the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations.

We consider the vorticity gradient growth of solutions to the two-dimensional Euler equations in domains without boundary, namely in the torus $\mathbb{T}^{2}$ and the whole plane $\mathbb{R}^{2}$. In the torus, whenever we have a steady state $ω^*$ that is orbitally stable up to a translation and has a saddle point, we construct ${\tildeω}_0 \in C^\infty(\mathbb{T}^2)$ that is arbitrarily close to $ω^*$ in $L^2$, such that superlinear growth of the vorticity gradient occurs for an open set of s
We consider the 2D Euler equation with periodic boundary conditions in a family of Banach spaces based on the Fourier coefficients, and show that it is ill-posed in the sense that 'norm inflation' occurs. The proof is based on the observation that the evolution of certain perturbations of the 'Kolmogorov flow' given in velocity by \begin{document}$U(x,y) = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{\cos \;y}\\0\end{array}} \right)$ \end{document} can be well approximated by the linear Schrödinger equation,
Abstract We consider the Cauchy problem for the logarithmically singular surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation, introduced by Ohkitani, $$\begin{aligned} \begin{aligned} \partial _t \theta - \nabla ^\perp \log (10+(-\Delta )^{\frac{1}{2}})\theta \cdot \nabla \theta = 0, \end{aligned} \end{aligned}$$ <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mml:mrow> <mml:mtable> <mml:mtr> <mml:mtd> <mml:mrow> <mml:mtable> <mml:mtr> <mml:mtd> <mml:mrow> <mml:msub> <mml:mi>∂</mml:mi> <mml:mi>t
We prove instantaneous and continuous-in-time loss of supercritical Sobolev regularity for the 3D incompressible Euler equations in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. Namely, for any $s\in (0,3/2)$ and $\varepsilon >0$, we construct a divergence-free initial vorticity $ω_0$ defined in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$ satisfying $\| ω_0 \|_{H^s}\leq \varepsilon$, as well as $T>0$, $c>0$ and a corresponding local-in-time solution $ω$ such that, for each $t\in [0,T]$, $ω(\cdot ,t ) \in {H^{\frac{s-ct}{1+ct}}}$ and $ ω(\cd
