Computing eigenvalues of discontinuous Sturm-Liouville problems with eigenparameter in all boundary conditions using Hermite approximation (Q2015667): Difference between revisions

Summary: The eigenvalues of discontinuous Sturm-Liouville problems which contain an eigenparameter appearing linearly in two boundary conditions and an internal point of discontinuity are computed using the derivative sampling theorem and Hermite interpolations methods. We use recently derived estimates for the truncation and amplitude errors to investigate the error analysis of the proposed methods for computing the eigenvalues of discontinuous Sturm-Liouville problems. Numerical results indicating the high accuracy and effectiveness of these algorithms are presented. Moreover, it is shown that the proposed methods are significantly more accurate than those based on the classical sinc method.
