The study of the 2D Euler equation with non Lipschitzian velocity was initiated by Yudovich in [19] where a result of global well-posedness for essentially bounded vorticity is proved. A lot of works have been since dedicated to the extension of this result to more general spaces. To the best of our knowledge all these contributions lack the proof of at least one of the following three fundamental properties: global existence, uniqueness and regularity persistence. In this paper we introduce a Banach space containing unbounded functions for which all these properties are shown to be satisfied.
