In this study, fractional differential transform method (FDTM), which is a semi analytical-numerical technique, is used for computing the eigenelements of the Sturm-Liouville problems of fractional order. The fractional derivatives are described in the Caputo sense. Three problems are solved by the present method. The calculated results are compared closely with the results obtained by some exi...

In this article, we investigate the fourth-order four-point nonhomogeneous Sturm-Liouville boundary-value problem u(t) = f(t, u(t)), t ∈ [0, 1], αu(0)− βu′(0) = γu(1) + δu′(1) = 0, au(ξ1)− bu(ξ1) = −λ, cu(ξ2) + du(ξ2) = −μ, where 0 ≤ ξ1 < ξ2 ≤ 1 and λ and μ are nonnegative parameters. We obtain sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of positive solutions. The dependence of the s...

in this manuscript, we study the inverse problem for non self-adjoint sturm--liouville operator $-d^2+q$ with eigenparameter dependent boundary and discontinuity conditions inside a finite closed interval. by defining  a new hilbert space and  using its spectral data of a kind, it is shown that the potential function can be uniquely determined by part of a set of values of eigenfunctions at som...

In this article, we extend fractional operators with nonsingular Mittag-Leffler kernels, a study initiated recently by Atangana and Baleanu, from order [Formula: see text] to higher arbitrary order and we formulate their correspondent integral operators. We prove existence and uniqueness theorems for the Caputo ([Formula: see text]) and Riemann ([Formula: see text]) type initial value problems ...

in this paper, boundary value problems of fractional order are converted into an optimal control problems. then an approximate solution is constructed from translations and dilations of a b-spline function such that the exact boundary conditions are satisfied. the fractional differential operators are taken in the riemann-liouville and caputo sense. several example are given and the optimal err...

In this paper we define the Evans function for Sturm-Liouville problems. We show that the Evans function is analytic in the spectral parameter, has zeros in one-to-one correspondence with the eigenvalues, and is under certain conditions what we call conjugate symmetric. We conclude by showing that the Evans function can be used to track the movement of the eigenvalues as the coefficients in the...

We consider Euler equations with stratified background state that is valid for internal water waves. The solution of the initial-boundary problem for Boussinesq approximation in the waveguide mode is presented in terms of the stream function. The orthogonal eigenfunctions describe a vertical shape of the internal wave modes and satisfy a Sturm-Liouville problem. The horizontal profile is define...

In formal scattering theory, Green functions are obtained as solutions of a distributional equation. In this paper, we use the Sturm-Liouville theory to compute Green functions within a rigorous mathematical theory. We shall show that both the Sturm-Liouville theory and the formal treatment yield the same Green functions. We shall also show how the analyticity of the Green functions as function...
