| contents | The study of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map and the associated Steklov problem for the Laplace equation has been a central topic in spectral geometry over the past decade. In this survey, we consider a more general framework in which the Laplace equation is replaced by the Helmholtz equation. We examine how the properties of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann eigenvalues and eigenfunctions depend on the parameter in the Helmholtz equation and describe new phenomena arising when this parameter is nonzero, as opposed to the Laplace case. In particular, we present various eigenvalue inequalities, analyse spectral asymptotics in different regimes, and investigate nodal domains and other features of eigenfunctions. We also discuss applications where the Helmholtz parameter plays an essential role, as well as challenges encountered in the numerical computation of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann spectrum. |
