Abstract The paper is concerned with the Neumann eigenvalues for second-order Sturm–Liouville difference equations. By analyzing the new discriminant function, we show the interlacing properties between the periodic, antiperiodic, and Neumann eigenvalues. Moreover, when the potential sequence is symmetric and symmetric monotonic, we show the order relation between the first Dirichlet eigenvalue and the second Neumann eigenvalue, and prove that the minimum of the first Neumann eigenvalue gap is attained at the constant potential sequence.

Let (Mn, g) be an n—dimensional compact Riemannian manifold with boundary with n > 2. In this paper we study the uniqueness of metrics in the conformai class of the metric g having the same scalar curvature in M, dM, and the same mean curvature on the boundary of M, dM. We prove the equivalence of some uniqueness results replacing the hypothesis on the first Neumann eigenvalue of a linear elliptic problem associated to the problem of conformai deformations of metrics for one about the first Dirichlet eigenvalue of that problem. Keywords: Conformal metrics, scalar curvature, mean curvature.

In this paper, we investigate even-order linear difference equations and their criticality. However, we restrict our attention only to several special cases of the general Sturm–Liouville equation. We wish to investigate on such cases a possible converse of a known theorem. This theorem holds for second-order equations as an equivalence; however, only one implication is known for even-order equations. First, we show the converse in a sense for one term equations. Later, we show an upper bound on criticality for equations with nonnegative coefficients as well. Finally, we extend the criticality of the second-order linear self-adjoint equation for the class of equations with interlacing indices. In this way, we can obtain concrete examples aiding us with our investigation.

AbstractIn this work, we establish optimal Lyapunov-type inequalities for the second-order difference equation with p-Laplacian $$\begin{aligned} \Delta (\left| \Delta u(k-1)\right| ^{p-2}\Delta u(k-1))+a(k)\left| u(k)\right| ^{p-2}u(k)=0 \end{aligned}$$ Δ ( Δ u ( k - 1 ) p - 2 Δ u ( k - 1 ) ) + a ( k ) u ( k ) p - 2 u ( k ) = 0 with Dirichlet, Neumann, mixed, periodic and anti-periodic boundary conditions.

AbstractWe prove that if the Neumann eigenvalues of the impulsive Sturm–Liouville operator {-D^{2}+q} in {L^{2}(0,\pi)} coincide with those of the Neumann Laplacian, then {q=0}.
