contents This paper investigates time-periodic solutions of both the surface quasi-geostrophic (SQG) equation and its generalized form (gSQG) within the more singular regime, focusing on the evolution of patch-type structures. Assuming the underlying point vortex equilibrium satisfies a natural nondegeneracy condition, we employ an implicit function argument to construct families of co-rotating nested polygonal vortex patch solutions. These configurations provide precise asymptotic descriptions of the geometry of the evolving patch boundaries. Our results contribute to the broader understanding of coherent rotating structures arising in active scalar equations with singular velocity coupling.
