Principal functions of non-selfadjoint Sturm-Liouville problems with eigenvalue-dependent boundary conditions (Q554890)

Summary: We consider the operator \(L\) generated in \(L^2(\mathbb R_+)\) by the differential expression \[ l(y) = -y^n + q(x)y,\quad x \in \mathbb R_+ := [0, \infty) \] and the boundary condition \[ y'(0)/y(0) = \alpha_0 + \alpha_1\lambda + \alpha_2\lambda^2, \] where \(q\) is a complex-valued function and \(\alpha_i \in \mathbb C, i = 0, 1, 2\) with \(\alpha_2 \neq 0\) . We obtain the properties of the principal functions corresponding to the spectral singularities of \(L\) .
