Steady periodic water waves bifurcating for fixed-depth rotational flows with discontinuous vorticity. (English) Zbl 1413.35060

Summary: In this article, we apply local bifurcation theory to prove the existence of small-amplitude steady periodic water waves, which propagate over a flat bed with a specified fixed mean-depth, and where the underlying flow has a discontinuous vorticity distribution.
