Eigenvalue computations for regular matrix Sturm-Liouville problems.
The purpose of this note is to present several criteria for essential self-adjointness. The method is based on ideas due to Shubin. This note is divided into two parts. The first part deals with symmetric first order systems on the line in the most general setting. Such a symmetric first order system of differential equations gives rise naturally to a symmetric linear relation in a Hilbert space. In this case even regularity is nontrivial. We will announce a regularity result and discuss criteria...
Let be a periodic time scale. The purpose of this paper is to use a modification of Krasnoselskii’s fixed point theorem due to Burton to prove the existence of periodic solutions on time scale of the nonlinear dynamic equation with variable delay , , where is the -derivative on and is the -derivative on . We invert the given equation to obtain an equivalent integral equation from which we define a fixed point mapping written as a sum of a large contraction and a compact map. We show...
In this paper we study existence and sufficiency conditions for the solutions of Sturm-Liouville operator problems related to the operator differential equation X'' - QX = F(t). Explicit solutions of the problem in terms of a square root of the operator Q are given.
