Abstract
A study is made of the multiplicities of the eigenvalues of the Laplace operator in the unit disc with Neumann boundary conditions. Our result is that all eigenvalues are simple or double, a result which is well-known if one instead considers Dirichlet boundary conditions. The result is proved by using some properties of Bessel functions. We also give an application to standing water waves in a cylinder.

Vi studerar multipliciteten av egenvärdena till Laplace-operatorn i enhetsskivan med Neumann-randvillkor. Vårt resultat är att alla egenvärden är enkla eller dubbla, ett resultat som är välkänt om man istället föreskriver Dirichlet-randvillkor. Beviset bygger på några egenskaper hos Besselfunktioner. Vi ger också en tillämpning på stående vattenvågor i en cylinder.
