This book gives a self-contained and up-to-date account of mathematical results in the linear theory of water waves. The study of waves has many applications, including the prediction of behavior of floating bodies (ships, submarines, tension-leg platforms etc.), the calculation of wave-making resistance in naval architecture, and the description of wave patterns over bottom topography in geophysical hydrodynamics. The first section deals with time-harmonic waves. Three linear boundary value problems serve as the approximate mathematical models for these types of water waves. The next section, in turn, uses a plethora of mathematical techniques in the investigation of these three problems. Among the techniques used in the book the reader will find integral equations based on Green's functions, various inequalities between the kinetic and potential energy, and integral identities which are indispensable for proving the uniqueness theorems. For constructing examples of non-uniqueness usually referred to as 'trapped modes' the so-called inverse procedure is applied. Linear Water Waves will serve as an ideal reference for those working in fluid mechanics, applied mathematics, and engineering.

This book provides a single source for both students and advanced researchers on asymptotic methods employed in the linear problems of mathematical physics. It opens with a section based on material from special courses given by the author, which gives detailed coverage of classical material on the equations of mathematical physics and their applications, and includes a simple explanation of the Maslov Canonical Operator method. The book goes on to present more advanced material from the author's own research. Topics range from radiation conditions and the principle of limiting absorption for general exterior problems, to complete asymptotic expansion of spectral function of equations over all of space. This book serves both as a manual and teaching aid for students of mathematics and physics and, in summarizing for the first time in a monograph problems previously investigated in journal articles, as a comprehensive reference for advanced researchers.
