Abstract

We study the properties of single boundary spike solutions for the following singularly perturbed problem It is known that at a non-degenerate critical point of the mean curvature function H(P), there exists a single boundary spike solution. In this paper, we show that the single boundary spike solution is unique and moreover it has exactly (N − 1) small eigenvalues. We obtain the exact asymptotics of the small eigenvalues in terms of H(P).
