In this paper, we consider the first Steklov-Dirichlet eigenvalue of the Laplace operator in annular domain with a spherical hole. We prove a monotonicity result with respect the hole, when the outer region is centrally symmetrc.
This note is an addendum to the results of P.O. Frederickson and A.C. Lazer [1], and A.C. Lazer [4] on periodic oscillations, with linear part at resonance. We show that a small modification of the argument in [4] provides a more general…
