Some properties of the eigenfunctions of Sturm-Liouville problem with two turning points (Q932492)

Consider the parameter dependent boundary value problem \[ y''+ [\lambda(1- x^2)- \psi(x)]y= 0,\quad x\in (a,b), \] \[ y(a)= y(\xi)= 0, \] where \(-\infty< a<-1\), \(1< b< \infty\), \(\xi\in (1,b)\), \(\psi\in C(a,b)\), \(\lambda\) is a real parameter. The author studies the asymptotics (as \(\lambda\to\infty\)) of the eigenvalues and of the eigenfunctions and their derivatives.
