In a small ferromagnetic disk which is magnetized in the vortex state, only a discrete set of spin-wave modes exists due the confinement as well as the cylindrical symmetry. When a radial mode is excited above certain threshold power it may decay into two azimuthal spin-wave modes via a process called three-magnon scattering. The three-magnon scattering in such a case has been found to obey certain selection rules which lead for the mode profiles of the secondary waves to be distinct from each other [1]. Here, we study the stability of this process when the cylindrical symmetry is broken by displacing the vortex with an external magnetic field. We find that the selection rules are maintained and three-magnon scattering into two different azimuthal modes persists below the vortex annihilation field. Moreover, we observe the appearance of additional secondary modes which appear for a certain range of external fields and for lower excitation field powers than the regular vortex modes.
