Abstract

We study the direct and inverse eigenvalue problems for a pair of harmonic functions with a spectral parameter in boundary and coupling conditions. The direct problem is relevant to sloshing frequencies of free oscillations of a two-layer fluid in a container. The upper fluid occupies a layer bounded above by a free surface and below by a layer of fluid of greater density. Both fluids are assumed to be inviscid, incompressible, and heavy, whereas the free surface and the interface between fluids are considered bounded.
