DESCRIPTION:Global bifurcation theory is the most successful method for pr
 oving existence of fully nonlinear steady water waves of large amplitude. 
 I will present an overview of some of the most significant results in abst
 ract bifurcation theory (the Crandall--Rabinowitz local bifurcation theore
 m\, the global topological theories of Rabinowitz and of Kielhofer\, and t
 he global real-analytic theory of Dancer\, Buffoni and Toland)\, together 
 with some aspects concerning the application of these results in the conte
 xt of various types of steady nonlinear water waves (gravity waves\, capil
 lary-gravity waves\, and waves beneath an elastic ice sheet).
