We consider a 2D vorticity configuration where vorticity is highly concentrated around a curve and exponentially decaying away from it: the intensity of the vorticity is O (1/ ε ) on the curve while it decays on an O ( ε ) distance from the curve itself. We prove that, if the initial datum is of vortex‐layer type, Euler solutions preserve this structure for a time that does not depend on ε . Moreover, the motion of the center of the layer is well approximated by the Birkhoff‐Rott equation. © 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
