| contents | We consider an eigenvalue problem for the generalized nonlinear Schrödinger type operator with the Robin boundary condition as given below. \begin{equation*} \label{ab-Robin p-Laplace evp with potential term_intro} \left\{ \begin{split} -Δ_p u+V(x)|u|^{p-2}u&=λ|u|^{p-2}u\quad &&\mathrm{in} ~Ω,\\ |\nabla u|^{p-2}\frac{\partial u}{\partialη}+β|u|^{p-2}u&=0\quad &&\mathrm{on}~\partialΩ, \end{split} \right. \end{equation*} where $Δ_p u := \operatorname{div}(|\nabla u|^{p-2}\nabla u)$ is the $p$-Laplace operator, $Ω$ is a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smooth boundary, $V \in C^1(\mathbb{R}^n),$ $ η$ denotes the outward unit normal, and $ β$ is a positive real constant. We study the properties of its first eigenvalue with respect to the potential $V$, the boundary parameter $β$ as well as the domain. First, we establish some properties of the smallest eigenvalue $λ_1(V)$ with respect to the potential. We then prove the differentiability of $λ_1(V)$ with respect to the Robin boundary parameter $β$ and give an explicit formula for this derivative, which is then used to investigate some monotonicity properties of $λ_1(V).$ We also obtain a shape derivative formula for the smallest eigenvalue. Using these derivatives, we also study domain monotonicity properties of the first eigenvalue. |
