Asymptotic forms of the Ursell edge waves on a gently sloping beach

Mathematical Physics 2026-07-14 v1

Abstract

It is shown that the asymptotics of the Ursell trapping modes on a sloping beach of small slope angle alpha coincide with the inverse Fourier transform of standard WKB exponentials, i.e., the Maslov canonical operator, as alpha tends to 0.
