Large deviation principles for the stochastic quasi-geostrophic equations. (English) Zbl 1291.60133
Summary: In this paper we establish the large deviation principle for the stochastic quasi-geostrophic equation with small multiplicative noise in the subcritical case. The proof is mainly based on the weak convergence approach. Some analogous results are also obtained for the small time asymptotics of the stochastic quasi-geostrophic equation.
