SynopsisThis paper is concerned with the L2 classification of ordinary symmetrical differential expressions defined on a half-line [0, ∞) and obtained from taking formal polynomials of symmetric differential expression. The work generalises results in this area previously obtained by Chaudhuri, Everitt, Giertz and the author.

AbstractWe establish aq-Titchmarsh-Weyl theory for singularq-Sturm-Liouville problems. We defineq-limit-point andq-limit circle singularities, and we give sufficient conditions which guarantee that the singular point is in a limit-point case. The resolvent is constructed in terms of Green’s function of the problem. We derive the eigenfunction expansion in its series form. A detailed worked example involving Jacksonq-Bessel functions is given. This example leads to the completeness of a wide class ofq-cylindrical functions.

SynopsisLimit-point and limit-circle criteria are given for the generalised Sturm-Liouville differential expressionwhere(i) p, q, and w are real-valued on [a, b),(ii) p−1, q, w are locally Lebesgue integrable on [a, b),(iii) w > 0 almost everywhere on [a, b) and the principal coefficient p is allowed toassume both positive and negative values.

AbstractWe establish a q-Titchmarsh-Weyl theory for singular q-Sturm-Liouville problems. We define q-limit-point and q-limit circle singularities, and we give sufficient conditions which guarantee that the singular point is in a limit-point case. The resolvent is constructed in terms of Green’s function of the problem. We derive the eigenfunction expansion in its series form. A detailed worked example involving Jackson q-Bessel functions is given. This example leads to the completeness of a wide class of q-cylindrical functions.
