Review text

We review basic results about waves at the interface between a horizontal fluid layer and air at atmospheric pressure or at the interface between two non-miscible fluids. The restoring mechanisms are mostly gravity and surface tension, but coupling with relative fluid motion or with an electric or a magnetic field will also be considered. The effect of dissipation on the dispersion relation is discussed. At the nonlinear level, perturbative methods are described in the case of long wavelength approximations or slowly varying wave packets. Finally, we consider parametric amplification of surface waves on a vertically vibrated fluid interface (the Faraday instability). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0911.00051].
