Basis properties of a problem for the Laplace operator on the square with spectral parameter in a boundary condition

We consider a classical spectral problem that arises when studying the natural vibrations of a loaded rectangular membrane fixed on two sides, the load being distributed along one of the free sides. We study the completeness, minimality, and basis property of the system of eigenfunctions and establish conditions guaranteeing the equiconvergence of spectral expansions in this system and in a given basis.
