      A planar Cauchy-Poisson problem of the waves at the interface of two flows of a heavy ideal incompressible fluid which move at different velocities when there is a small homogeneity in the density is investigated. A method is proposed which enables one to investigate not only travelling and standing waves but also the general Cauchy-Poisson problem taking account of the difference in the velocities of the flows. The basis of this method is a linear integral relationship which associates the value of a harmonic function on the boundary of its derivative. A system of integrodifferential equations is obtained for the function which determines the profile of the wave and the discontinuity in the potential at the interface of the flows.
