The nonlinear interaction of three tightly wound spiral density waves in a gaseous disk of constant density is considered. A system of nonlinear equations describing the departure of the disk parameters from their equilibrium values is reduced to a single equation for the azimuthal component of the perturbed disk velocity. The equation takes into account the possibility that the main wave may break up into a pair of waves on opposite sides of the corotation resonances. The solution to the problem is obtained in the form of an interval that contains changes in the wave number k for the Galaxy in both the short-wave and long-wave modes. Several of the consequences of the interaction are briefly discussed.
