The spectral function , where are the eigenvalues of the two-dimensional Laplacian, is studied for a variety of domains. The dependence of θ(t) on the connectivity of a domain and the impedance boundary conditions is analysed. Particular attention is given to a doubly-connected region together with the impedance boundary conditions on its boundaries.
