In this work we study the point spectra of selfadjoint Sturm-Liouville operators with generalized point interactions, where the two one-sided limits of the solution data are related via a general $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ matrix. We are particularly interested in the stability of eigenvalues with respect to the variation of the parameters of the interaction matrix. As a particular application to the case of random generalized point interactions we establish a version of Pastur's theorem, stating that except for degenerate cases, any given energy is an eigenvalue only with probability zero. For this result, independence is important but identical distribution is not required, and hence our result extends Pastur's theorem from the ergodic setting to the non-ergodic setting.
We study asymptotics of eigenvalues, eigenfunctions and norming constants of singular energy-dependent Sturm--Liouville equations with complex-valued potentials. The analysis essentially exploits the integral representation of solutions, which we derive using the connection of the problem under study and a Dirac system of a special form.
We consider the spectral problem generated by the Sturm-Liouville equation with an arbitrary complex-valued potential q(x) and irregular boundary conditions. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for a set of complex numbers to be the spectrum of such an operator.
The Sturm--Liouville problem $-y''-λρy=0$, $y(0)=y(1)=0$, where $ρ$ is a generalized derivative of self-similar function $P\in L_2[0,1]$ with spectral degree D=0, is studied. Asymptotic formulas for eigenvalues are obtained.
We prove some new results which justify the use of interval truncation as a means of regularising a singular fourth order Sturm-Liouville problem near a singular endpoint. Of particular interest are the results in the so called lim-3 case, which has no analogue in second order singular problems.
We consider the Sturm-Liouville operator Lu=u''-q(x)u with periodic or antiperiodic boundary conditions. It is shown that depending of Fourier coefficients of the potential q(x) the system of root functions may have or may not have the basis property.
Selfadjoint Sturm-Liouville operators $H_ω$ on $L_2(a,b)$ with random potentials are considered and it is proven, using positivity conditions, that for almost every $ω$ the operator $H_ω$ does not share eigenvalues with a broad family of random operators and in particular with operators generated in the same way as $H_ω$ but in $L_2(\tilde a,\tilde b)$ where $(\tilde a,\tilde b)\subset(a,b)$.
A method of calculation of eigenvalues of the problem $-y''-λρy=0$, $y(0)=y(1)=0$, where $ρ$ is a distribution having self-similar primitive $P\in L_2[0,1]$, is described.
We give a complete description of the set of spectral data (eigenvalues and specially introduced norming constants) for Sturm--Liouville operators on the interval $[0,1]$ with matrix-valued potentials in the Sobolev space $W_2^{-1}$ and suggest an algorithm reconstructing the potential from the spectral data that is based on Krein's accelerant method.
We consider the spectral problems for the Sturm-Liouville operator generated by the Dirichlet, Neumann, Dirichlet-Neumann and Neumann-Dirichlet conditions. The necessary and sufficient condition for the coincidence of the spectrum of the Dirichlet-Neumann and Neumann-Dirichlet problems is proved. Also the necessary and sufficient condition for the coincidence of the spectrum, except zero, of the Dirichlet and Neumann problems is proved. An application to periodic and anti-periodic problems is given.

The inverse spectral problems are studied for the Sturm-Liouville operator on the star-shaped graph and for the matrix Sturm-Liouville operator with the boundary condition in the general self-adjoint form. We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions of solvability for these two inverse problems, and also prove their local solvability and stability.
We consider Sturm-Liouville operators with singular potentials from the class on star-type graph with cycle, which consist the edges with commensurable lengths. Asymptotic representation for eigenvalues for such operators is obtained. Recovering of the characteristic function the Sturm-Liouville operators with the singular potentials is considered.
We solve the inverse spectral problem of recovering the singular potentials $q\in W^{-1}_{2}(0,1)$ of Sturm-Liouville operators by two spectra. The reconstruction algorithm is presented and necessary and sufficient conditions on two sequences to be spectral data for Sturm-Liouville operators under consideration are given.
We study spectral properties of energy-dependent Sturm-Liouville equations, introduce the notion of norming constants and establish their interrelation with the spectra. One of the main tools is the linearization of the problem in a suitable Pontryagin space.

The paper investigates spectral properties of multi-interval Sturm-Liouville operators with distributional coefficients. Constructive descriptions of all self-adjoint and maximal dissipative/accumulative extensions in terms of boundary conditions are given. Sufficient conditions for the resolvents of these operators to be operators of the trace class and for the systems of root functions to be complete are found. Results of paper are new for one-interval boundary value problems as well.
In this study, the theorem on necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of inverse problem for Sturm-Liouville operator with discontinuous coefficient is proved and the algorithm of reconstruction of potential from spectral data (eigenvalues and normalizing numbers) is given.
We establish the connection between Sturm-Liouville equations on time scales and Sturm--Liouville equations with measure-valued coefficients. Based on this connection we generalize several results for Sturm-Liouville equations on time scales which have been obtained by various authors in the past.
In this work, we use the \textit{regularized sampling method} to compute the eigenvalues of Sturm Liouville problems with discontinuity conditions inside a finite interval. We work out an example by computing a few eigenvalues and their corresponding eigenfunctions.
In this study, we give the Sturm comparison theorems for discrete fractional Sturm-Liouville (DFSL) equations within Riemann-Liouville and Grünwald-Letnikov sense. The emergence of Sturm-Liouville equations began as one dimensional Schrödinger equation in quantum mechanics and one of the most important results is Sturm comparison theorems [27]. These theorems give information about the properties of zeros of two equations having different potentials.
In this study, we define discrete fractional Sturm-Liouville (DFSL) operators within Riemann-Liouville and Grünwald-Letnikov fractional operators with both delta and nabla operators. We show selfadjointness of the DFSL operator for the first time and prove some spectral properties, like orthogonality of distinct eigenfunctions, reality of eigenvalues, paralelly in integer and fractional order differential operator counterparts.
The author tries to derive the asymptotic expression of the large eigevalues of some vectorial Sturm-Liouville differential equations. A precise description for the formula of the square root of the large eiegnvalues up to the $O(1/n)$-term is obtained.
Regular Sturm-Liouville problems with indefinite weight functions may possess finitely many non-real eigenvalues. In this note we prove explicit bounds on the real and imaginary parts of these eigenvalues in terms of the coefficients of the differential expression.
We study the inverse spectral problem of reconstructing energy-dependent Sturm-Liouville equations from their Dirichlet spectra and sequences of the norming constants. For the class of problems under consideration, we give a complete description of the corresponding spectral data, suggest a reconstruction algorithm, and establish uniqueness of reconstruction. The approach is based on connection between spectral problems for energy-dependent Sturm-Liouville equations and for Dirac operators of special form.
An inverse spectral problem is studied for the matrix Sturm-Liouville operator on a finite interval with the general self-adjoint boundary condition. We obtain a constructive solution based on the method of spectral mappings for the considered inverse problem. The nonlinear inverse problem is reduced to a linear equation in a special Banach space of infinite matrix sequences. In addition, we apply our results to the Sturm-Liouville operator on a star-shaped graph.

We study Sturm--Liouville differential operators on the time scales consisting of a finite number of isolated points and segments. In a previous paper it was established that such operators are uniquely determined by their spectral characteristics. In the present paper, an algorithm for their recovery based on the method of spectral mappings is obtained. We also prove that the eigenvalues of two Sturm--Liouville boundary value problems with one common boundary condition alternate.

In this paper, inequalities among eigenvalues of different self-adjoint discrete Sturm-Liouville problems are established. For a fixed discrete Sturm-Liouville equation, inequalities among eigenvalues for different boundary conditions are given. For a fixed boundary condition, inequalities among eigenvalues for different equations are given. These results are obtained by applying continuity and discontinuity of the n-th eigenvalue function, monotonicity in some direction of the n-th eigenvalue function, which were given in our previous papers, and natural loops in the space of boundary conditi…
