Abstract

Characterizations of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on a product domain Ωp:=Ω1×Ω2 are obtained. When zero Dirichlet, Robin or Neumann conditions are specified on each factor, then the eigenfunctions on Ωp are precisely the products of the eigenfunctions on the sets Ω1, Ω2 separately. There is a related result when Steklov boundary conditions are specified on Ω2. These results enable the characterization of H1(Ωp) and H01(Ωp) as tensor products and descriptions of some orthogonal bases of the spaces. A different characterization of the trace space of H1(Ωp) is found.
