We consider the Stokes conjecture concerning the shape of extreme
two-dimensional water waves. By new geometric methods including a
nonlinear frequency formula, we prove the Stokes conjecture in the original
variables. Our results do not rely on structural assumptions needed in previous
results such as isolated singularities, symmetry and monotonicity. Part of
our results extends to the mathematical problem in higher dimensions
