We consider a Sturm -Liouville operator Lu = -(r(t)u ) +p(t)u, where r is a (strictly) positive continuous function on ]a, b[ and p is locally integrable on ]a, b[ . Let r 1 (t) = t a (1/r) ds and choose any c ∈ ]a, b[ . We are interested in the eigenvalue problem Lu = λm(t)u, u(a) = u(b) = 0, and t

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
For every positive integer n, we construct a class of regular self-adjoint and nonself-adjoint Sturm-Liouville problems with exactly n eigenvalues. These n eigenvalues can be located anywhere in the complex plane in the non-self-adjoint case and anywhere along the real line in the self-adjoint case.
We give some comparison theorems about the location of the peak of the first Dirichlet Sturm᎐Liouville eigenfunction by means of the variational method.
## Abstract Singular boundary conditions are formulated for non‐selfadjoint Sturm–Liouville problems which are limitcircle in a very general sense. The characteristic determinant is constructed and it is shown that it can be used to extend the Birkhoff theory for so called “Birkhoff regular boundar
