Introduction
d d y
p( x ) + (q (x ) + λ r ( x )) y = 0, x ∈ (a, b )
dx d x (1)
where p, q, r and p’ are real and continuous on interval (a,b) known functions and
λ is a constant. Equation (1) comprises a wide class of ordinary differential equa-
tions of the second order. For example, the equation
a2 ( x ) y ′′ + a1 ( x ) y ′ + a0 ( x ) + λ y = 0 (2)
can be written in the form of equation (1) assuming:
a (x ) a (x ) p(x )
p(x ) = exp ∫ 1 dx , q (x ) = 0 p (x ) , r (x ) =
a2 ( x ) a 2 ( x ) a 2 (x )
α1 y ( a ) + α 2 y′ ( a ) = 0, β1 y ( b ) + β2 y′ ( b ) = 0
