In this paper, the fractional Sturm-Liouville problems, in which the second order derivative is replaced by a fractional derivative, are derived by the Homotopy perturbation method. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. The present results can be implemented on the numerical solutions of the fractional diffusion-wave equations. Numerical results show that HPM is effectiv...

In this paper, we study a generalized Sturm-Liouville boundaryvalue problems with two positive parameters. By constructing a completely continuous operator and combining fixed point index theorem and some properties of the eigenvalues of linear operators, we obtain sufficient conditions for the existence of at least one positive solution.

An inverse spectral problem is studied for the non-selfadjoint matrix Sturm–Liouville differential equation on the half-line. We give a formulation of the inverse problem, prove the corresponding uniqueness theorem and provide a constructive procedure for the solution of the inverse problem by the method of spectral mappings. The obtained results are natural generalizations of the classical res...

In this paper, we give the solution of the inverse Sturm–Liouville problem on two partially coinciding spectra. In particular, in this case we obtain Hochstadt's theorem concerning the structure of the difference q(x) − ˜ q(x) for the singular Sturm Liouville problem defined on the finite interval (0, π) having the singularity type 1 4 sin 2 x at the points 0 and π.

This paper is concerned with the construction and study of specific finite and infinite integral transforms arising from a singular Sturm-Liouville problem on a half line, which is connected to the hydrogen atom equation. The paper goes further to describe fully the image of some spaces of square integrable functions with respect to some measure under the finite and infinite integral transforms...

Eigenvalues in the essential spectrum of a weighted Sturm-Liouville operator are studied under the assumption that the weight function has one turning point. An abstract approach to the problem is given via a functional model for indefinite Sturm-Liouville operators. Algebraic multiplicities of eigenvalues are obtained. Also, operators with finite singular critical points are considered. MSC-cl...

In this paper, we study q-Sturm-Liouville operators. We construct a space of boundary values of the minimal operator and describe all maximal dissipative, maximal accretive, self-adjoint and other extensions of q-Sturm-Liouville operators in terms of boundary conditions. Then we prove a theorem on completeness of the system of eigenfunctions and associated functions of dissipative operators by ...

This paper constructs the small-gain theorem upon a general class of Sturm-Liouville systems. It appears that the feedback connection of two Sturm-Liouville sub-systems is guaranteed of well-posedness, Hurwitz, dissipativity and passivity in L2-spaces provided the loop gain is less than 1. To construct the theorem, spatiotemporal transfer-function and geometrical isomorphism between the space-t...
