We derive the dispersion relation for water waves with surface tension and having a piecewise constant vorticity distribution. More precisely, we consider here two scenarios; the first one is that of a flow with constant non-zero vorticity adjacent to the flat bed while above this layer of vorticity we assume the flow to be irrotational. The second type of flow has a layer of non-vanishing vorticity adjacent to the free surface and is irrotational below.
Keywords: piece-wise constant vorticity, Capillary-gravity water waves, dispersion relation..
