A non standard unique continuation property related to Schiffer conjecture
[ Abstract ]
Coming from a control problem for a coupled fluid-structure system, we are confronted to the following problem in dimension 2:
\\Delta^2 w = -\\lambda \\Delta w in \\Omega w = {\\partial w}/{\\partial n} = 0 on \\Gamma {\\partial\\Delta w}/{\\partial n}=0 on \\Gamma_0 \\subset \\Gamma.
The question is : do we have w=0?
There is a counterexample when \\Omega is a disc. The analogous of (local) Schiffer's conjecture is : is the disc the only domain for which we can have a non zero solution?
Notice that the term local means that the additional boundary condition occurs only on a part of the boundary and when this boundary is not analytic, this is a major difference. A sub-conjecture would be : when the boundary is not analytic, do we have w=0?
Here we show that when \\Omega has a corner of angle \\theta_{0} with \\theta_{0} \\neq \\pi, 3\\pi/2 and when $\\Gamma_{0}$ is (locally) one edge of this angle then the only solution is w=0.
