Popis: We construct global curves of rotational traveling wave solutions to the $2D$ water wave equations on a compact domain. The real analytic interface is subject to surface tension, while gravitational effects are ignored. In contrast to the rotational surface waves, the fluid flow follows the incompressible, irrotational Euler equations. This model can provide a description for tiny water droplets in breaking waves and white caps. The primary tool we use is global bifurcation theory, via a conformal formulation of the problem. The obtained fluid domains have $m$-fold discrete rotational symmetry, as well as a reflection symmetry.
