We examine the two-dimensional structure of m = 1 modes in disks around white dwarfs in close binary systems. We find that the odd modes (warping modes) as well as even modes (eccentric modes) are confined to the outermost part of the disk. The period of the fundamental mode is of a few percent of the binary period, and is insensitive to the parity of the mode. These modes naturally explain the superhump periods of SU UMa stars.
