contents In this paper we address some questions about symmetry, radial monotonicity, and uniqueness for a semilinear fourth-order boundary value problem in the ball of $\mathbb R^2$ deriving from the Kirchhoff-Love model of deformations of thin plates. We first show the radial monotonicity for a wide class of biharmonic problems. The proof of uniqueness is based on ODE techniques and applies to the whole range of the boundary parameter. For an unbounded subset of this range we also prove symmetry of the ground states by means of a rearrangement argument which makes use of Talenti's comparison principle. This paper complements the analysis in [G. Romani, Anal. PDE 10 (2017), no. 4, 943-982], where existence and positivity issues have been investigated.
