For a given polygon $P_N$, with side lengths $x_1,\cdots,x_N$ and interior angles $\theta_1,\cdots,\theta_N$ let $\lambda(x_1,\cdots,x_N,\theta_1,\cdots,\theta_N)$ denote the least eigenvalue of dirichletDirichlet Laplacian on $P_N$.

Question. Is $\lambda$ as a function of $x_1,\cdots,x_N,\theta_1,\cdots,\theta_N$ smooth in each variable?if not, is it at least one timetwice continuously differentiable?

Edit 1. The exitence and continuity of the first derivative follows from Theorem 2.5.1 of A. Henrot's book.
