Abstract: A plasmon of a bounded domain $Omegasubsetmathbb{R}^n$ is a non-trivial bounded harmonic function on $mathbb{R}^{n}setminuspartialOmega$ which is continuous at $partialOmega$ and whose exterior and interior normal derivatives at $partialOmega$ have a constant ratio. We call this ratio a plasmonic eigenvalue of $Omega$. Plasmons arise in the description of electromagnetic waves hitting a metallic particle $Omega$. We investigate these eigenvalues and prove that they form a sequence of numbers converging to one. Also, we prove regularity of plasmons, derive a variational characterization, and prove a second order perturbation formula. The problem can be reformulated in terms of Dirichlet-Neumann operators, and as a side result we derive a formula for the shape derivative of these operators.
