Abstract
In this paper, we consider a sign-changing free boundary problem that comes from the boundary regularity of rotating vortex patches of the two-dimensional incompressible Euler equations. The complete classification of singular points has been obtained through establishing a new Weiss-type monotonicity formula. Upon these results, we prove that only $90^\circ$ corner type of singularity could happen at the boundary of a Lipschitz rotating vortex patch, while the other parts are $C^\infty$ smooth.
