We show that the governing equations for two-dimensional gravity water waves with constant non-zero vorticity have a nearly-Hamiltonian structure, which becomes Hamiltonian for steady waves.

We consider the Cauchy problem for the 2D gravity water wave equation. Recently Wu \cite{Wu15, Wu18} proved the local well-posedness of the equation in a regime which allows interfaces with angled crests as initial data. In this work we…

We consider the two dimensional gravity water wave equation in a regime where the free interface is allowed to be non-$C^1$. In this regime, only a degenerate Taylor inequality $-\frac{\partial P}{\partial \bf n}\ge 0$ holds, with…

The evolution of random wave fields on the free surface is a complex process which is not completely understood nowadays. For the sake of simplicity in this study we will restrict our attention to the 2D physical problems only (i.e. 1D wave…

We consider the gravity water waves system in the case of a one dimensional interface, for sufficiently smooth and localized initial data, and prove global existence of small solutions. This improves the almost global existence result of Wu…
