Abstract: The semi-geostrophic equations have attracted the attention of the physical and mathematical communities since the work of Hoskins in the 1970s owing to their ability to model the formation of fronts in rotation-dominated flows, and also to their connection with optimal transport theory. In this paper, we study an active scalar equation, whose activity is determined by way of a Neumann-to-Dirichlet map associated to a fully nonlinear second-order Neumann boundary value problem on the infinite strip $mathbb{R}^{2}imes(0,1)$, that models a semi-geostrophic flow in regime of constant potential vorticity. This system is an expression of an Eulerian semi-geostrophic flow in a co-ordinate system originally due to Hoskins, to which we shall refer as {em Hoskins' coordinates}. We obtain results on the local-in-time existence and uniqueness of classical solutions of this active scalar equation in H"older spaces.
