AHAM, newly proposed in this paper within the context of Homotopy Analysis Method (HAM) and well validated in various ways, is able to deal with nonlinear wave interactions. In waves with small propagation angles, it is confirmed that more components share the wave energy if the wave field has a greater steepness. However, in waves with larger propagation angles, it is newly found that wave energy may also concentrate in some specific components. In such wave fields, off-resonance detuning is also considered. Bifurcation and symmetrical properties are discovered in some wave fields. Our results may provide a deeper understanding on nonlinear wave interactions at resonance in water of finite depth. Key words: Nonlinear wave, wave resonance, steady state, homotopy analysis method

Introduction  Resonant interactions among surface gravity waves are one of the physical processes governing the evolution of ocean wave spectra. It has been studied a lot since 1960, pioneered by Phillips' classic work[1]. The resonance conditions of gravity waves with two primary components are

( u ,v  0 ) resonances are represented by the

frequency detuning u ,v . Note that the quartet resonance of surface gravity waves is the lowest-order resonance in deep water and water of finite depth[1]. It is natural and necessary to start from the quartet resonance when we study the evolution of ocean wave spectra. Particularly, mainly for the sake of simplicity, the quartet resonance in the degenerate case (i.e. triads where one wave is counted twice) has been studied a lot since last century. In deep water, the resonant component was found to grow linearly with time in the initial stage[1-3] and then exchange wave energy with the primary ones in rel
