We consider the half linear Sturm-Liouville problemon the interval [0,1] subject to separated boundary conditions (which may be eigenparameter dependent at x = 1) and use Prüfer techniques to produce an oscillation theory for this problem. Both right definite (r > 0) and left definite (r of both signs) cases are discussed.

The paper is devoted to study of the inverse problem of the boundary spectral assignment of the Sturm-Liouville with a delay. -y'(x) + q(x)y(? ? x) = ?y(x), q ? AS[0, ?], ? ? (0,1] (1) with separated boundary conditions: y(0) = y(?) = 0 (2) y(0) = y'(?) = 0 (3) It is argued that if the sequence of eigenvalues is given ?n(1) and ?n(2) tasks (1-2) and (1-3) respectively, then the delay factor ? ? (0,1) and the potential q ? AS[0, ?] are unambiguous. The potential q is composed by means of trigonometric Fourier coefficients. The method can be easily transferred to the case of ? = 1 i.e. to the classical Sturm-Liouville problem.

In the following I discuss the properties, in particular the completeness of the set of eigenfunctions, of an eigenvalue problem which differs from the well-known Sturm-Liouville problem by the boundary condition being of a rather unusual type.The problem arises in the theory of nuclear collisions, and for our present purpose we take it in the simplified formwhere 0 ≤ x ≤ 1. V(x) is a given real function, which we assume to be integrable and to remain between the bounds ± M, and W is an eigenvalue. The eigenfunction ψ(x) is subject to the boundary conditionsand

Sturm theory is extended to the equationfor 1/p, q, r∈L1 [0, 1] with p, r > 0, subject to boundary conditionsandOscillation and comparison results are given, and asymptotic estimates are developed. Interlacing of eigenvalues with those of a standard Sturm–Liouville problem where the boundary conditions are ajy(j) = cj(py′)(j), j=0, 1, forms a key tool.

Oscillation, comparison and asymptotic theory for the Sturm-Liouville problemwith 1/p, q, r ε L1 ([0, 1]), p, r > 0, are studied subject to eigenvalue-dependent boundary conditionsThis continues previous work on cases with (− 1)j δj ≦ 0 where δj = ajdj − bjcj. We now consider the remaining sign conditions for δj, exploiting the interplay between the graph of cot θ− (λ, 1), for a modified Prüfer angle θ−, and the eigencurves of a related two-parameter problem.

If a Sturm—Liouville problem is given in an open interval of the real line, then regular boundary value problems can be considered on compact sub-intervals. For these regular problems, all with necessarily discrete spectra, the eigenvalues depend on both the end-points of the compact intervals, and upon the choice of the real separated boundary conditions at these end-points. These eigenvalues are not, in general, continuous functionsof the end-points and boundary conditions. The paper shows the surprising form of these discontinuities. The results have applications to the approximations of singular Sturm—Liouville problems by regular problems, and to the theoretical aspects of the Sleign2 Computer program.

The Sturm-Liouville problem with various types of two-point boundary conditions is considered in this paper. In the first part of the paper, we investigate the Sturm-Liouville problem in three cases of nonlocal two-point boundary conditions. We prove general properties of the eigenfunctions and eigenvalues for such a problem in the complex case. In the second part, we investigate the case of real eigenvalues. It is analyzed how the spectrum of these problems depends on the boundary condition parameters. Qualitative behavior of all eigenvalues subject to the nonlocal boundary condition parameters is described.
