Multiparameter eigenvalue problems for systems of linear differential equations with homogeneous boundary conditions have been considered by Ince [4] and Richardson [5, 6], and more recently Faierman [3] has considered their completeness and expansion theorems. A survey of eigenvalue problems with several parameters, in mathematics, is given by Atkinson [1].We consider the two differential equations:1a1bwhere p1’(x), q1(x), A1(x), B1(x) and p2’(y), q2(y), A2(y), B2(y) are continuous for x ∈ [a1, b1] and y ∈ [a2, b2] respectively, and p1 (x) > 0(x ∈ [a1, b1]), p2(y) > 0 (y ∈ [a2, b2]), p1(a1) = p1(b1), p2(a2) = p2(b2). The differential equations (1) will be subjected to the periodic boundary conditions.2a2bLet us consider a single differential equation

SynopsisThis paper studies a linked system of second order ordinary differential equationswhere xx ∈ [ar, br] and the coefficients qrars are continuous, real valued and periodic of period (br − ar), 1 ≤ r,s ≤ k. We assume the definiteness condition det{ars(xr)} > 0 and 2k possible multiparameter eigenvalue problems are then formulated according as periodic or semi-periodic boundary conditions are imposed on each of the equations of (*). The main result describes the interlacing of the 2k possible sets of eigentuples thus extending to the multiparameter case the well known theorem concerning 1-parameter periodic equation.

In 1950, Wintner (11) showed that if the function f(x) is continuous on the half-line [0, ∞) and, in a certain sense, is “ small when x is large ” then the differential equationdoes not have L2 solutions, where the function y(x) satisfying (1) is called an L2 solution if

Recently Howe [4] has considered the oscillation theory for the two-parameter eigenvalue problem1a1bsubjected to the boundary conditions2a2bwhere for i = 1, 2, — ∞<ai<bi<∞, and qi are real-valued, continuous functions in [ai, bi], pi is positive in [ai, biz], and pi(ai)=pi(bi). Furthermore, it is also assumed that (A1B2—A2B1)≠0 for all values of x1 and x2 in their respective intervals.
