Abstract
We report on the symmetrization phenomenon of a hollow-core vortex in shallow liquid conditions. This phenomenon accompanies the transition of m wave into (m + 1) wave and involves a beat-wave resonance that mediates energy transfer between the background flow and the vortex core. It is shown that this beat wave has a frequency m(m-1)times the frequency of the parent m wave.
