In this paper we prove three different Liouville type theorems for the steady Navier-Stokes equations in $\Bbb R^3$. In the first theorem we improve logarithmically the well-known $L^{\frac92} (\Bbb R^3)$ result. In the second theorem we…

The spectral analysis of the Sturm-Liouville operator defined on a finite segment is the subject of an extensive literature. Sturm-Liouville operators on a finite segment are well studied and have numerous applications. The study of such…

This paper presents two new classes of M\"untz functions which are called Jacobi-M\"untz functions of the first and second types. These newly generated functions satisfy in two self-adjoint fractional Sturm-Liouville problems and thus they…

This paper is devoted to the derivation of expansion a associated with a discontinuous Sturm-Liouville problems defined on $[-\pi, 0)\cup(0,\pi]$. We derive an eigenfunction expansion theorem for the Green's function of the problem as well…

We determine square root domains for non-self-adjoint Sturm--Liouville operators of the type $$ L_{p,q,r,s} = - \frac{d}{dx}p\frac{d}{dx}+r\frac{d}{dx}-\frac{d}{dx}s+q $$ in $L^2((c,d);dx)$, where either $(c,d)$ coincides with the real line…

Sturm's Theorem is a fundamental 19th century result relating the number of real roots of a polynomial $f$ in an interval to the number of sign alternations in a sequence of polynomial division-like calculations. We provide a short direct…

Finding the eigenvalues of a Sturm-Liouville problem can be a computationally challenging task, especially when a large set of eigenvalues is computed, or just when particularly large eigenvalues are sought. This is a consequence of the…

The classical Sturm-Hurwitz-Kellogg theorem asserts that a function, orthogonal to an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle, has at least n+1 sign changes. We prove the converse: given an n-dimensional Chebyshev system on a circle and…

Motivated by recent questions about the extension of Courant's nodal domain theorem, we revisit a theorem published by C. Sturm in 1836, which deals with zeros of linear combination of eigenfunctions of Sturm-Liouville problems. Although…

A fundamental theorem of Liouville asserts that positive entire harmonic functions in Euclidean spaces must be constant. A remarkable Liouville-type theorem of Caffarelli-Gidas-Spruck states that positive entire solutions of $-\Delta u=u^{…
