In this paper we address the Cauchy problem for the incompressible Euler equations in the periodic setting. We prove that the set of Hölder $${1/5 - \varepsilon}$$1/5-ε wild initial data is dense in $${L^{2}}$$L2, where we call an initial datum wild if it admits infinitely many admissible Hölder $${1/5 - \varepsilon}$$1/5-ε weak solutions. We also introduce a new set of stationary flows which we use as a perturbation profile instead of Beltrami flows in order to show that a general form of the h-principle applies to Hölder-continuous weak solutions of the Euler equations. Our result indicates that in a deterministic theory of three dimensional turbulence the Reynolds stress tensor can be arbitrary and need not satisfy any additional closure relation.
