We study the behaviour, as $p \to +\infty$, of the second eigenvalues of the $p$-Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions and the limit of the associated eigenfunctions. We prove that, up to some regularity of the set, the limit of the…

We study a Dirichlet spectral problem for a second-order elliptic operator with locally periodic coefficients in a thin domain. The boundary of the domain is assumed to be locally periodic. When the thickness of the domain $\varepsilon$…
