A boundary value problem with a discontinuous coefficient and containing a spectral parameter in the boundary condition.
In this follow-up on the work of Fefferman-Seco [FS] an improved condition for the discrete eigenvalues of the operator -d2 / dx2 + V(x) is established for V(x) satisfying certain hypotheses. The eigenvalue condition in [FS] establishes eigenvalues of this operator to within a small error. Through an obervation due to C. Fefferman, the order of accuracy can be improved if a certain condition is true. This paper improves on the result obtained in [FS] by showing that this condition does indeed hold....

The operator , , , is shown to be essentially self-adjoint, positive definite with a compact resolvent. The conditions on (in fact, on a general symmetric operator) are given so as to justify the application of the Fourier method for solving the problems of the types and , respectively.
We study a Sturm-Liouville problem containing a spectral parameter in the boundary conditions. We associate to this problem a self-adjoint operator in a Pontryagin space Π₁. Using this operator-theoretic formulation and analytic methods, we study the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues under the variation of a large physical parameter in the boundary conditions. The spectral analysis is applied to investigate the well-posedness and stability of the wave equation of a string.
