Boundary perturbation of the Laplace eigenvalues and applications to electron bubbles and polygons

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mathematics, 2003. === Includes bibliographical references (p. 89-91). === We analyze the evolution of Laplace eigenvalues on a domain induced by the motion of the boundary. We apply our analysis to two problems: 1. We study the equili...
