- We prove strong ill-posedness in $L^{\infty}$ for linear perturbations of the 2d Euler equations of the form: \[\partial_t ω+ u\cdot\nablaω= R(ω),\] where $R$ is any non-trivial second order Riesz transform. Namely, we prove that there exist smooth solutions that are initially small in $L^{\infty}$ but become arbitrarily large in short time. Previous works in this direction relied on the strong ill-posedness of the linear problem, viewing the transport term perturbatively, which only led to mild growth. In this work we derive a nonlinear model taking all of the leading order effects into account to determine the precise pointwise growth of solutions for short time. Interestingly, the Euler transport term does counteract the linear growth so that the full nonlinear equation grows an order of magnitude less than the linear one. In particular, the (sharp) growth rate we establish is consistent with the global regularity of smooth solutions.
