Nonlocal gravity wave turbulence in presence of condensate

Abstract: We develop a theory of turbulence of weak random gravity waves on surface of deep water in which the main nonlinear process at high-frequency part of the spectrum is a nonlocal interaction with a strong low-frequency component. The latter component, which we call ``condensate", may appear in the system due to, e.g., the finite size effects which lead to an energy stagnation at waves whose wavelength is comparable to the size of the retaining flume. Our theory assumes the form of a linear spectral diffusion equation. We find a scaling solution of this equation and propose it as a possible explanation of recent numerical results for the gravity wave spectrum.
