✦ Synopsis


A generalization is given for a characterization of the spectral density function of Weyl and Titchmarsh for a singular Sturm-Liouville problem having absolutely continuous spectrum in [0, ∞). A recurrent formulation is derived that generates a family of approximations based on this scheme. Proofs of convergence for these new approximations are supplied and a numerical method is implemented. The computational results show more rapid rates of convergence which are in accord with the theoretical rates.

New families of approximations to Sturm-Liouville spectral density functions are derived for cases where the potential function has one of several specific forms. This particular form dictates the type of expansion functions used in the approximation. Error bounds for the residuals are established f

## Abstract In this paper we consider some cases of Sturm–Liouville problems with two singular endpoints at __x__ = 0 and __x__ = __∞__ which have a simple spectrum, and show that the simplicity of the spectrum can be built into the definition of a Titchmarsh–Weyl __m__ ‐function from which the eig
