Waves reflected by the inner edge of a protoplanetary disk are shown to
significantly modify Type I migration, even allowing the trapping of planets
near the inner disk edge for small planets in a range of disk parameters. This
may inform the distribution planets close to their central stars, as observed
by the Kepler mission.
