contents It has been conjectured that generic smooth solutions of the two-dimensional Euler equation exhibit linear growth of vorticity gradients. We prove an elementary arbitrary-background perturbation principle in the odd symmetric setting. More precisely, for any compactly supported nonnegative function in the half-plane, one can find an arbitrarily small smooth nonnegative perturbation whose associated solution undergoes linear-in-time filamentation in the quadrant. The main ingredients are the lower bound of the center of mass given by Iftimie-Sideris-Gamblin, and the velocity estimate for the sparse part to capture those slowly moving particles.
