contents We study the stability of traveling wave solutions to the Burgers--Hilbert equation on $\mathbb{T}$ in the regime of small frequency $ω$ and large wave speed $c$. For $ω= 3$ and $c \approx 1.1$, we show that the linearized operator around these solutions has an eigenvalue with negative real part, indicating spectral instability. Our approach is computer-assisted: we reduce the problem to a finite-dimensional system and solve it rigorously using interval arithmetic. The Burgers--Hilbert equation arises as a quadratic approximation of the vortex patch problem for the two-dimensional Euler equations. In this setting, our results point to the instability of threefold symmetric V-states.
