Uniqueness in the Freedericksz transition with weak anchoring

In this paper we consider a boundary value problem for a quasilinear pendulum equation with non-linear boundary conditions that arises in a classical liquid crystals setup, the Freedericksz transition, which is the simplest opto-electronic switch, the result of competition between reorienting effect...
