The boundary condition considered is the perfectly reflective boundary condition. The point spectrum on the imaginary axis is only equal to {0}. However, the null space varies with the common axes of symmetry of the domain and the external-force potential.}, issn = {2079-732X}, doi = {https://doi.org/}, url = {http://global-sci.org/intro/article_detail/jpde/5613.html} }
