The symmetry of minimisers for the best constant in the trace inequality in a ball, NEWLINE\[NEWLINE S_q(p)=\inf_{u\in W^{1,p}(B_\rho)} \frac{\|u \|^p_{W^{1,p}(B_\rho)}}{\|u\|^p_{L^q(\partial B_\rho)}} NEWLINE\]NEWLINE has been studied by various authors. Partial results are known which imply radial symmetry of minimisers, or lack thereof, depending on the values of the trace exponent \(q\) and the radius of the ball \(\rho.\) The present work deals with a one dimensional analogue of the trace inequality and the corresponding minimisation problem for the best constant. There are described the exact values of \(q\) and \(p\) for which minimisers are symmetric. The author considers the behaviour of minimisers as the symmetry breaking threshold for \(q\) and \(p\) is breached, and shows a case in which both symmetric and nonsymmetric minimisers coexist.
