On the Mathematical Description of Time-Dependent Surface Water Waves

Abstract: This article provides a survey on some main results and recent developments in the mathematical theory of water waves. More precisely, we briefly discuss the mathematical modeling of water waves and then we give an overview of local and global well-posedness results for the model equations. Moreover, we present reduced models in various parameter regimes for the approximate description of the motion of typical wave profiles and discuss the mathematically rigorous justification of the validity of these models.

“…Two important examples include the approximation of waves in the form of wave packets by the nonlinear Schrödinger (NLS) equation, and the approximation of long waves in shallow water by the Kortewegde Vries (KdV) equation. We refer the reader to [43,[142][143][144][145], the book [24] and the surveys [146,147] and references therein for more about reduced models and their mathematical justification. -Books and reviews.…”
