 Nondispersive wave

A nondispersive wave has constant phase velocity on a propagation branch. For $\omega =ck$, its group velocity is also $c$. A frequency relation with a nonzero offset, such as $\omega =ck+b$, has constant group velocity but a phase velocity $c+b/k$ depending on wavenumber; constant group velocity alone is therefore not sufficient for nondispersion.
