## Abstract We consider the Sturm–Liouville problem (1.1) and (1.2) with a potential depending rationally on the eigenvalue parameter. With these equations a __λ__ ‐linear eigenvalue problem is associated in such a way that __L__~2~‐solutions of (1.1), (1.2) correspond to eigenvectors of a linear o
We develop a simple oscillation theory for singular Sturm -Liouville problems and combine it with recent asymptotic results, and with the AWA interval-arithmetic code for integration of initial value problems with guaranteed error bounds, to obtain eigenvalue approximations with guaranteed error bou
