Expansion Theorem for Sturm-Liouville problems transmission conditions

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to extend some spectral properties of regular Sturm-Liouville problems to the special type discontinuous boundary-value problem, which consists of a Sturm-Liouville equation together with eigenparameter-dependent boundary conditions and two supplementary transmission conditions. We construct the resolvent operator and Green's function and prove theorems about expansions in terms of eigenfunctions in modified Hilbert space $L_2[a,b]$. \vskip0.3cm\noindent Keywords: Boundary-value problems, transmission conditions, Resolvent operator, expansion theorem.
