Abstract
It is well-know that the Sturm-Liouville theory justifies the ”separation of variables”n method forvoluminous partial differential equation problems. For Sturm-Liouville problems the Rayleigh quotient is the basisof an important approximation method that is used in physics, as well as in engineering. Although any eigenvaluecan be related to its eigenfunction by the Rayleigh quotient, this quotient cannot be used to determine the exact valueof the eigenvalue since eigenfunction is unknown. However, interesting and significant results can be obtained fromthe Rayleigh quotient without solving the differential equation(i.e. even in the case when the eigenfunction is notknown). For example, Rayleigh quotient can be quite useful in estimating the eigenvalue.It is the purpose of this paper to extend and generalize such important spectral properties as eigenfunction expansionand Parseval equality for Sturm-Liouville problems with interior singularities. We shall investigate certain spectralproblems arising in the theory of the convergence of the eigenfunction expansion. Particularly, by modifying theGreen’s function method we shall extend and generalize such important spectral properties as Parseval’s equality,Rayleigh quotient and Rayleigh-Ritz formula for the considered problem.
