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.

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.

For certain classes of singular symmetric differential operators L of order 2n, this paper considers the problem of determining sufficient conditions for L to be of limit point type or of limit circle type. The operator discussed here is defined by

We consider the Sturm–Liouville equation with the initial condition and suppose that Weyl's limit-point case holds at infinity. Let ρα(μ) be the corresponding spectral function and its symmetric derivative. We show that for almost all μ ∈ R, if exists and is positive for some α ∈ [0, π), then (i) exists and is positive for all β ∈ [0, π), and (ii) for all α1, α2 ∈ (0, π) \ {½ π},

SynopsisConsider the differential expressionIt is shown here that given pn > 0 with pn ∈ C2n(0, ∞) there exist coefficientssuch that all solutions of the equation Ry = 0 are in L2(0,∞). The pi for i<n can be explicitly obtained in terms of pn and a parameter function.

AbstractConsider the equationwhereƒ∈Lp(ℝ),p∈ (1, ∞) andBy a solution of (*), we mean any functionyabsolutely continuous together with (ry′) and satisfying (*) almost everywhere on ℝ. In addition, we assume that (*) is correctly solvable in the spaceLp(ℝ), i.e.(1) for any function, there exists a unique solutiony∈Lp(ℝ) of (*);(2) there exists an absolute constantc1(p) > 0 such that the solutiony∈Lp(ℝ) of (*) satisfies the inequalityWe study the following problem on the strengthening estimate (**). Let a non-negative functionbe given. We have to find minimal additional restrictions forθunder which the following inequality holds:Here,yis a solution of (*) from the classLp(ℝ), andc2(p) is an absolute positive constant.
