Abstract: | An asymptotic longwave model which takes dispersive terms into account is constructed for describing the motion of thin films with finite deviations from the middle surface. An exact periodic solution describing a nonlinear capillary wave is constructed within the framework of the model. Small deviations from the nonlinear capillary wave are described by a linear system with periodic coefficients. It is shown that for wave perturbation periods greater than a certain critical value the monodromy matrix of this system has eigenvalues whose absolute values are equal to unity. For perturbation periods less than the critical period the absolute value of one of the eigenvalues becomes greater than unity. |
