The $\overline\partial$-Robin Laplacian

Abstract: We study the family of operators ${\mathcal{R}a}{a\in [0,+\infty)}$ associated to the Robin-type problems in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^2$ $$ \begin{cases} -\Delta u = f & \text{in } \Omega, \ 2 \bar \nu \partial_{\bar z} u + au = 0 & \text{on } \partial\Omega, \end{cases} $$ and their dependency on the boundary parameter $a$ as it moves along $[0,+\infty)$. In this regard, we study the convergence of such operators in a resolvent sense. We also describe the eigenvalues of such operators and show some of their properties, both for all fixed $a$ and as functions of the parameter $a$. As shall be seen in more detail in a forthcoming paper, the eigenvalues of these operators characterize the positive eigenvalues of quantum dot Dirac operators.
