Abstract: This paper studies the structural implications of constant vorticity for steady three-dimensional internal water waves. It is known that in many physical regimes, water waves beneath vacuum that have constant vorticity are necessarily two dimensional. The situation is more subtle for internal waves that traveling along the interface between two immiscible fluids. When the layers have the same density, there is a large class of explicit steady waves with constant vorticity that are three-dimensional in that the velocity field and pressure depend on one horizontal variable while the interface is an arbitrary function of the other. We prove the following rigidity result: every three-dimensional traveling internal wave with bounded velocity for which the vorticities in the upper and lower layers are nonzero, constant, and parallel must belong to this family. If the densities in each layer are distinct, then in fact the flow is fully two dimensional.
The authors gave some results on the rigidity of three-dimensional internal waves with constant vorticity. They discussed the case under the condition that the internal waves travel along the interface between two immiscible fluids with special vorticity assumptions: \begin{itemize} \item[1.] when the layers have the same density, each solution of the steady internal wave problem (1.1) is either a trivially three-dimensional shear flow of a special form or two-dimensional; \item[2.] when the layers have the different densities, the flow is fully two-dimensional. The authors also gave two open problems arising from the discussions. \end{itemize}
