Title: Finite-depth standing water waves: theory, computational algorithms, and rational approximations

We generalize the semi-analytic standing-wave framework of Schwartz and Whitney (1981) and Amick and Toland (1987) to finite-depth standing gravity waves. We propose an appropriate Stokes-expansion ansatz and iterative algorithm to solve the system of differential equations governing the expansion coefficients. We then present a more efficient algorithm that allows us to compute the asymptotic solution to higher orders. Finally, we conclude with numerical simulations of the algorithms implemented in multiple-precision arithmetic on a supercomputer to study the effects of small divisors and the analytic properties of rational approximations of the computed solutions. This is joint work with Jon Wilkening (UC Berkeley).
