Refinement of asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues for the linearized Liouville-Gel'fand Problem

Abstract

We determine the second term of the asymptotic expansions for the first m eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the linearized Liouville-Gel'fand problem associated to solutions which blow-up at m points. Our problem is the case with an inhomogeneous coefficient in two dimensional domain and we extend the previous studies for the problem with a homogeneous coefficient. We also discuss in detail the required regularity of the coefficient necessary to get the conclusion.
