AbstractThe Sturm–Liouville differential equation is one of interesting problems which has been studied by researchers during recent decades. We study the existence of a solution for partial fractional Sturm–Liouville equation by using the α-ψ-contractive mappings. Also, we give an illustrative example. By using the α-ψ-multifunctions, we prove the existence of solutions for inclusion version of the partial fractional Sturm–Liouville problem. Finally by providing another example and some figures, we try to illustrate the related inclusion result.

In this paper, we study the Dirac equation in the Rindler spacetime. The solution of the wave equation in an accelerated reference frame is obtained. The differential equation associated to this wave equation is mapped into a Sturm–Liouville problem of a Schrödinger-like equation. We derive a compact expression for the energy spectrum associated with the Dirac equation in an accelerated reference. It is shown that the noninertial effect of the accelerated reference frame mimics an external potential in the Dirac equation and, moreover, allows the formation of bound states.

AbstractThe perturbation of the eigenvalues of a regular Sturm–Liouville problem in normal form which results from a small perturbation of the coefficient function is known to be uniformly bounded. For numerical methods based on approximating the coefficients of the differential equation, this result is used to show that a better bound on the error is obtained when the problem is in normal form. A method having a uniform error bound is presented, and an extension of this method for general Sturm–Liouville problems is proposed and examined.

Mathematical modeling of composite materials plays an important role in modern technology, and the solution and study of inverse boundary value problems of heat transfer is impossible without the use of systems of eigenfunctions of the Sturm-Liouville problem for the differential equation with discontinuous coefficients. One of the most important properties of such systems is their completeness in the corresponding spaces. This property of systems allows to prove theorems of existence and uniqueness of both direct problems and inverse boundary value problems of thermal conductivity, and also to prove numerical methods of solving such problems. In this paper, we prove the completeness of the Sturm-Liouville problem in the space $L_2[r_0,r_2]$ for a second-order differential operator with a discontinuous coefficient. This problem arises when investigating and solving the inverse boundary problem of thermal conductivity for a hollow ball consisting of two balls with different temperature conductivity coefficients. Self-conjugacy, injectivity, and positive definiteness of this operator are proved.

SynopsisSufficient oscillation criteria of Nehari-type are established for the differential equation −uʺ(t) + q(t)u(t) = 0, 0<t<∞, with and without sign restrictions on q(t), respectively. These results are extended to Sturm-Liouville equations and elliptic differential equations of second order.In Section 7 we present conclusions for the lower spectrum of elliptic differential operators and also for the discreteness of the spectrum of certain ordinary differential operators of second order.
