Best constant for Ulam stability of Hill's equations (Q2208969)

The paper deals with the linear second-order differential equation \[y''=a(x)y,\leqno(1)\] where \(a:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) is a time-varying coefficient. If \(a(x)\) is a continuous periodic function, then equation \((1)\) is called ''Hill's equation''. The authors consider the case \(a(x)=\lambda^2(x)-\lambda'(x)\), where \(\lambda:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}\) is a periodic continuously differentiable function. They investigate the Ulam stability of equation \((1)\) and derive the best (minimal) Ulam stability constant.
