O локализации собственных чисел одной спектральной задачи.
∗ Partially supported by Grant MM-428/94 of MESC.Systems of orthogonal polynomials on the real line play an important role in the theory of special functions [1]. They find applications in numerous problems of mathematical physics and classical analysis. It is known, that classical polynomials have a number of properties, which uniquely define them.
We study conditions of discreteness of spectrum of the functional-differential operator on . In the absence of the integral term this operator is a one-dimensional Schrödinger operator. In this paper we consider a symmetric operator with real spectrum. Conditions of discreteness are obtained in terms of the first eigenvalue of a truncated operator. We also obtain one simple condition for discreteness of spectrum.
The method proposed here has been devised for solution of the spectral problem for the Lamé wave equation (see [2]), but extended lately to more general problems. This method is based on the phase function concept or the Prüfer angle determined by the Prüfer transformation cotθ(x) = y'(x)/y(x), where y(x) is a solution of a second order self-adjoint o.d.e. The Prüfer angle θ(x) has some useful properties very often being referred to in theoretical research concerning both single- and multi-parameter...
