DESCRIPTION:Solitary waves with decaying tails propagating at the surface 
 of a fluid  are considered. Such waves are known to exist when both gravit
 y and surface tension are included in the dynamic boundary condition.  Oth
 er examples include hydroelastic waves. These solitary waves exist both in
  two and three dimensions.  Three dimensional waves are characterised by d
 ecaying oscillations in the direction of propagation and monotonic decay i
 n the direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation. Most of the
  waves previously calculated are symmetric.\n\nIn this talk we show that t
 here are in addition many new families of nonsymmetric waves. These waves 
 are computed for the full Euler equations in the two dimensional case. For
  three dimensional waves\,  a model equation is used.\n\n
