It is well known that the Euler vortex patch in ℝ2 will remain regular if it is regular enough initially. In bounded domains, the regularity theory for patch solutions is less complete. In this paper, we study Euler vortex patches in a general smooth bounded domain. We prove global in time regularity by providing an upper bound on the growth of curvature of the patch boundary. For a special symmetric scenario, we construct an example of double exponential curvature growth, showing that our upper bound is qualitatively sharp.
