Using numerical hydrodynamic techniques, the Hadley & Imamura collaboration — see especially Paper I and Paper II — has studied the dynamical development of nonaxisymmetric instabilities in toroidal configurations that have a range of "star-to-disk" mass ratios and a wide variety of (initially axisymmetric) geometric structures. Our principal aim, here, is to compare the results of these numerical investigations with what is known, analytically, about normal modes of oscillation and nonaxisymmetric instabilities in massless Papaloizou-Pringle tori. On the analytic side, our focus is on the very informative stability analysis published by Blaes (1985; hereafter, Blaes85).
