We consider the regularity of an interface between two incompressible and inviscid fluids flows in the presence of surface tension. We obtain local in time estimates on the interface in H32k+1H^{\frac32k +1} and the velocity fields in H32kH^{\frac32k}. These estimates are obtained using geometric considerations which show th…
