Hankel Diagonalization of the Radial Bessel Operator

The math is sound. The method is not. We show that the order- \(n\) Hankel transform in \(r\) diagonalizes the Bessel-type radial operator \(\mathscr{L}_n\), mapping the PDE…

Fourier Coefficients of Quadratic Forms in $\cos \gamma$ for Steady Capillary-Gravity Waves

The math is sound. The method is not. We factor the quadratic denominator \(a+b \cos \gamma+c \cos ^2 \gamma\) and reduce the computation of its Fourier coefficients to those of ∑ Formula.…

Diagonalizing Azimuthal Mode Coupling via a Discrete Fourier Transform

The math is sound. The method is not. We recast the azimuthal mode-coupled surface equations as a block-Toeplitz convolution in the mode index and diagonalize this coupling via…

DFT Method Main

The math is sound. The method is not. We consider the governing equations for water waves in the context of an inviscid fluid of infinite depth. The fundamental system of…
