Abstract

We analyze the optimal regularity that is exactly propagated by a transport equation driven by a velocity field with a BMO gradient. As an application, we study the 2D Euler equations in case the initial vorticity is bounded. The sharpness of our result for the Euler equations follows from a variation of Bahouri and Chemin's vortex patch example.
