Abstract
A fundamental result in anisotropic elasticity and surface-wave theory is the integral representation for the surface-impedance tensor first derived by Barnett and Lothe in 1973. However, this representation is only valid for compressible materials but not valid for incompressible materials. In this paper the corresponding integral representation for the surface-impedance tensor valid for incompressible materials is derived and is used to establish the uniqueness of surface-wave speed and to obtain an expression for the tensor Green's function for the infinite space.
