The possion ratio is not negative so the answer is zero.

E = 2G(1+M).
Let E = 1 then G = 1/2,
1 = 2. 1/2 (1+M),
1 = 1+M,
M = 1-1 = 0.
Let E = 1 then G = 1/2,
1 = 2. 1/2 (1+M),
1 = 1+M,
M = 1-1 = 0.

You are correct @Viraj.

E = 2G (1+M).
E = Young's modulus.
G = Shear modulus.
M = Poisson's ratio.
And the answer will be -1.
E = Young's modulus.
G = Shear modulus.
M = Poisson's ratio.
And the answer will be -1.
