SynopsisWe consider ihe differential expression M[y]: = −y″ + qy on [0, ∞) where q_∈ Lp [0, ∞) for some p ≧ 1. It is known that M, together with the boundary conditions y(0) = 0 or y′(0) = 0, defines linear operators on L2 [0, ∞). We obtain lower bounds for the spectra of these operators. Our bounds depend on the Lp norm of q_ and extend results of Everitt and Veling.

We are concerned with the nth-order linear differential equation1where the coefficients are continuous. Aliev [1, 2] showed, in papers unavailable to the author that for n = 4(see Definition 2). Theorems 1 and 5 give respectively nth-order generalizations of these two results.

This paper presents a method to obtain lower and upper bounds for the minimum distance between pointsaandbof the solution of the second order linear differential equationy′′+q(x)y=0satisfying general separated boundary conditions of the typea11y(a)+a12y′(a)=0anda21y(b)+a22y′(b)=0. The method is based on the recursive application of a linear operator to certain functions, a recursive application that makes these bounds converge to the exact distance betweenaandbas the recursivity index grows. The method covers conjugacy and disfocality as particular cases.

SynopsisIn an earlier paper [6] we showed that if q ϵ CN[0, ε) for some ε > 0, then the Titchmarsh–Weyl m(λ) function associated with the second order linear differential equationhas the asymptotic expansionas |A| →∞ in a sector of the form 0 < δ < arg λ < π – δ.We show that if the real valued function q admits the expansionin a neighbourhood of 0, then

In this paper, we study a fourth order linear differential equation. We found an upper bound for the solutions of this differential equation and also, we prove that all the solutions are in L4(0, ∞). By comparing these results we obtain that all the eigenfunction of the boundary value problem generated by this differential equation are bounded and in L4(0, ∞).
