Abstract

In this paper we provide a detailed analysis of the limiting behavior of some very general families of solutions to the boundary value problem Δv = 0 in Ω, ∂v/∂n = λ sinh(v) on ∂Ω, as λ → 0 +. The existence of countably many of these families has already been established in [Quart. Appl. Math., 60 (2002), pp. 675-694] and [Proc. Roy. Soc. Edinburgh Sect. A, 133 (2003), pp. 119-149].
