The Orr-sommerfeld Equation on a Manifold

The most eeective and widely used methods for integrating the Orr-Sommerfeld equation by shooting are the continuous orthogonalization method and the compound matrix method. In this paper, we consider this problem from a diierential-geometric point of view. A new deenition of orthogonalization is presented: restriction of the Orr-Sommerfeld to a complex Stiefel manifold, and this deenition lead...
