Exponential growth of the vorticity gradient for the Euler equation on the torus

We prove that there are solutions to the Euler equation on the torus with C^1,α$C^{1,\alpha }$ vorticity and smooth except at one point such that the vorticity gradient grows in L^∞$L^{\infty }$ at least exponentially as t→∞$t\to \infty$. The same result is shown to hold for the vorticity Hessian and smooth solutions. Our proofs use a version of a recent result by Kiselev and Šverák 6].
