Abstract
Abstract We consider the gravity water waves system with a periodic one‐dimensional interface in infinite depth and give a rigorous proof of a conjecture of Dyachenko‐Zakharov [16] concerning the approximate integrability of these equations. More precisely, we prove a rigorous reduction of the water waves equations to its integrable Birkhoff normal form up to order 4. As a consequence, we also obtain a long‐time stability result: periodic perturbations of a flat interface that are initially of size ε remain regular and small up to times of order . This time scale is expected to be optimal. © 2022 The Authors. Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics published by Wiley Periodicals LLC.
