Abstract

In previous papers [MS 1, 2], we considered stationary critical points of solutions of the initial-boundary value problems for the heat equation on bounded domains in ℝN,N ≧ 2. In [MS 1], we showed that a solutionu has a stationary critical pointO if and only ifu satisfies a certain balance law with respect toO for any time. Furthermore, we proved necessary and sufficient conditions relating the symmetry of the domain to the initial datau0; in this way, we gave a characterization of the ball in ℝN([MS 1]) and of centrosymmetric domains ([MS 2]). In the present paper, we consider a rotationAdby an angle 2π/d,d ≧ 2 for planar domains and give some necessary and some sufficient conditions onu0 which relate to domains invariant underAd. We also establish some conjectures.
