1. Introduction: Euler equations for incompressible fluid
Let (u, v , w ) be the three components of the velocity vector in the
Cartesian coordinates (x, y , z), t - time, p - pressure (pa is the constant
atmospheric pressure at the surface, and Γ is the coefficient of the
surface tension), ρ - constant density, g - gravitational acceleration,
z = 0 - the bottom, and z = h(x, y , t) - the free surface elevation.
ρ(ut + uux + vuy + wuz ) = −px ,
ρ(vt + uvx + vvy + wvz ) = −py ,

1. Introduction: Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (KP) and
cylindrical KP (cKP) equations
Transformations between the KP and cKP equations were found by
Johnson (1980) and rediscovered by Lipovskii, Matveev, Smirnov (1989).
The map
Y2 Y
W (τ, χ, V ) → U(τ, ξ, Y ) := W τ, ξ +
,
12α2 τ τ
transforms any solution of the cKP equation (3) into a solution of the
KP equation (2). Conversely, the map
τV 2
U(τ, ξ, Y ) → W (τ, χ, V ) := U τ, χ −
,
τ
V
12α2
transforms any solution of the KP equation (2) into a solution of the
cKP equation (3).
The transformation has been used to construct some special solutions of
the cKP equation by Klein, Matveev, Smirnov (2007).
2. Derivation of the elliptic cylindrical KP equation
We aim to consider waves with the nearly-elliptic front, and we write this
set of equations in the elliptic cylindrical coordinate system:
x = d cosh α cos β,
y = d sinh α sin β,
z = z,
where d has the meaning of half a distance between the foci of the
coordinate lines, and change the two horizontal components of the
velocity vector: u → u cos β − v sin β, v → u sin β + v cos β.
We nondimensionalise the variables
λ

x → λx, y → λy , z → h0 z, t → √

p
p
h0 gh0
u → gh0 u, v → gh0 v , w →
w,
λ
h → h0 + hs η, p → pa + ρg (h0 − z) + ρgh0 p,
which leads to the appearance of the two usual nondimensional
parameters in the problem: the long wavelength parameter δ = hλ0 and
the small amplitude parameter = hh0s , as well as a new nondimensional
parameter γ = λd (ellipticity parameter).
Scaling: u → u,
v → v ,
w → w ,
p → p.
2. Derivation of the elliptic cylindrical KP equation
Equation for the linear waves (in the long-wave approximation) is
obtained for = δ = 0 as
ηαα + ηββ

The derivation of the cylindrical KP (cKP) equation (also known as the
nearly-concentric KP equation or Johnson’s equation) is based on the
existence of the exact reduction of the equation (5) to the equation
1
ηtt − (ηrr + ηr ) = 0.
r
Unlike (5), equation (4) does not have an exact reduction to the
equation with no dependence on β. However, there is an asymptotic
reduction.

which generalise a change of variables for the cylindrical coordinates.
Here, 2γ cosh α is the sum of the distances from a point on an ellipse to
its foci. Thus, ζ is an asymptotic characteristic coordinate for the waves
with the nearly-elliptic front, and it becomes a characteristic coordinate
for the concentric waves in the limit (6).

2. Derivation of the elliptic cylindrical KP equation
We now seek a solution of the system of equations and boundary
conditions in the form of asymptotic multiple-scales expansions:
H = H0 + ∆H1 + O(∆2 ),
with similar expansions for U, V , W and P.
We obtain the elliptic cylindrical KP equation (ecKP)

3. Transformations between KP, cKP and ecKP equations
The geometry of a wave with the nearly-elliptic front, considered
simultaniously in the Cartesian and elliptic cylindrical coordinates,
suggests the introduction of the sum and the difference of the distances
from a point on the wave front to the two foci of the coordinate system
d1 + d2 = 2γ cosh α,
d1 − d2 = 2γ cos β,
where the foci have the following Cartesian coordinates: F1 (−γ, 0) and
F2 (γ, 0). We recall that the variables have been nondimensionalised, as
discussed in section 2, and
d
γ= .
λ
Note that 21 (d1 + d2 ) − t corresponds, up to the scaling, to the
asymptotic characteristic variable ζ.
3. Transformations between KP, cKP and ecKP equations
Then, for the area satisfying
asymptotic behaviour
