Abstract: We study a Sturm-Liouville type eigenvalue problem for second-order differential equations on the infinite interval. Here the eigenfunctions are nonzero solutions exponentially decaying at infinity. We prove that at any discrete eigenvalue the differential equations are integrable in the setting of differential Galois theory under general assumptions. Our result is illustrated with two examples for a stationary Schroedinger equation having a generalized Hulthen potential and an eigenvalue problem for a traveling front in the Allen-Cahn equation.
