@article{10902/29548, year = {2020}, url = {https://hdl.handle.net/10902/29548}, abstract = {In this work we study the nonlocal transport equation derived recently by Steinerberger when studying how the distribution of roots of a polynomial behaves under iterated differentation of the function. In particular, we study the well-posedness of the equation, establish some qualitative properties of the solution and give conditions ensuring the global existence of both weak and strong solutions. Finally, we present a link between the equation obtained by Steinerberger and a one-dimensional model of the surface quasi-geostrophic equation used by Chae, Córdoba, Córdoba & Fontelos.}, organization = {R.
