We analysed the sunspot 3-min wave dynamics and found a correlation between the oscillation power amplification and flare triggering in the region connected to the sunspot through the magnetic channel. We propose that this amplified wave flux triggered the flare. The flare occurred because of this amplified flux, however, and because a sufficient amount of free magnetic energy was accumulated in close vicinity to the magnetic channel prior to the flare. Furthermore, because of loop heating, the wave velocity (sound velocity) increased with the penetration of waves into the energy release site. The heating is shown to be able to proceed after the flare main peak owing to a further energy pumping in the form of waves from the sunspot and additional reconnection episodes in the flare region.
