where the potentials are given functions. Under various boundary conditions, Sturm and Liouville established that solutions of problem (1) can exist only for particular values of the real parameter λ, which is called an eigenvalue. Relevant examples of linear Sturm-Liouville problems are the Bessel equation and the Legendre equation. The classical Sturm-Liouville theory does not depend upon the...

In this paper, we consider the application of the homotopy perturbation method (HPM) to compute the eigenvalues of the Sturm-Liouville problem (SLP) which is called non-definite SLP. Two important Examples show that HPM is reliable method for computing the eigenvalues of SLP.

We consider a regular indefinite Sturm-Liouville problem with two self-adjoint boundary conditions, one being affinely dependent on the eigen-parameter. We give sufficient conditions under which a basis of each root subspace for this Sturm-Liouville problem can be selected so that the union of all these bases constitutes a Riesz basis of a corresponding weighted Hilbert space.

In this paper, a computational intelligence method is used for the solution of fractional optimal control problems (FOCP)'s with equality and inequality constraints. According to the Ponteryagin minimum principle (PMP) for FOCP with fractional derivative in the Riemann- Liouville sense and by constructing a suitable error function, we define an unconstrained minimization problem. In the optimiz...

In this study by modifying some techniques of classical Sturm-Liouville theory and suggesting own approaches we investigate some spectral properties of one Sturm-Liouville type problem on two disjoint intervals.

abstract.   the sturm-liouville boundary value problem of the multi-order fractional differential equation  is studied. results on the existence of solutions are established. the analysis relies on a weighted function space and a fixed point theorem. an example is given to illustrate the efficiency of the main theorems.
