Asymptotic eigenvalues of Sturm-Liouville systems

Multiplicity of Sturm-liouville Eigenvalues

The geometric multiplicity of each eigenvalue of a self-adjoint Sturm-Liouville problem is equal to its algebraic multiplicity. This is true for regular problems and for singular problems with limit-circle endpoints, including the case when the leading coefficient changes sign.

Dependence of eigenvalues of Sturm-Liouville problems

The eigenvalues of Sturm-Liouville (SL) problems depend not only continuously but smoothly on boundary points. The derivative of the nth eigenvalue as a function of an endpoint satisfies a first order differential equation. This for arbitrary (separated or coupled) self-adjoint regular boundary conditions. In addition, as the length of the interval shrinks to zero all higher eigenvalues march o...

Computing Eigenvalues of Singular Sturm-Liouville Problems

We describe a new algorithm to compute the eigenvalues of singular Sturm-Liouville problems with separated self-adjoint boundary conditions for both the limit-circle nonoscillatory and oscillatory cases. Also described is a numerical code implementing this algorithm and how it compares with SLEIGN. The latter is the only effective general purpose software available for the computation of the ei...

The Asymptotic Form of Eigenvalues for a Class of Sturm-Liouville Problem with One Simple Turning Point

The purpose of this paper is to study the higher order asymptotic distributions of the eigenvalues associated with a class of Sturm-Liouville problem with equation of the form w??=(?2f(x)?R(x)) (1), on [a,b, where ? is a real parameter and f(x) is a real valued function in C2(a,b which has a single zero (so called turning point) at point 0x=x and R(x) is a continuously differentiable function. ...
