Stochastic quasi-geostrophic equation

In this note we study the 2D stochastic quasi-geostrophic equation in T ² for general parameter α ∈ (0, 1) and multiplicative noise. We prove the existence of martingale solutions and pathwise uniqueness under some condition in the general case, i.e. for all α ∈ (0, 1). In the subcritical case α > 1/2, we prove existence and uniqueness of (probabilistically) strong solutions and construct a Markov family of solutions. In particular, it is uniquely ergodic for α > 2/3 provided the noise is non-degenerate. In this case, the convergence to the (unique) invariant measure is exponentially fast. In the general case, we prove the existence of Markov selections.
