We study two problems. The first one is the similarity problem for the indefinite Sturm-Liouville operator \[ A=-(\sgn\, x)\frac{d}{wdx}\frac{d}{rdx} \] acting in $L^2_{w}(-b,b)$. It is assumed that $w,r\in L^1_{\loc}(-b,b)$ are even and…

We consider a regular singular Sturm-Liouville operator $L:=-\frac{d^2}{dx^2} + \frac{q(x)}{x^2 (1-x)^2}$ on the line segment $[0,1]$. We impose certain boundary conditions such that we obtain a semi-bounded self-adjoint operator. It is…
For $s_1,s_2\in(0,1)$ and $p,q \in (1, \infty)$, we study the following nonlinear Dirichlet eigenvalue problem with parameters $\alpha, \beta \in \mathbb{R}$ driven by the sum of two nonlocal operators: \begin{equation*} (-\Delta)^{s_1}_p…
The paper deals with Sturm-Liouville-type operators with frozen argument of the form $\ell y:=-y''(x)+q(x)y(a),$ $y^{(\alpha)}(0)=y^{(\beta)}(1)=0,$ where $\alpha,\beta\in\{0,1\}$ and $a\in[0,1]$ is an arbitrary fixed rational number. Such…
We study perturbations of the self-adjoint periodic Sturm--Liouville operator \[ A_0 = \frac{1}{r_0}\left(-\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx} p_0 \frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx} + q_0\right) \] and conclude under $L^1$-assumptions on the differences…

Eigenvalues in the essential spectrum of a weighted Sturm-Liouville operator are studied under the assumption that the weight function has one turning point. An abstract approach to the problem is given via a functional model for indefinite…
In certain circumstances, the uncertainty, $\Delta S [\phi]$, of a quantum observable, $S$, can be bounded from below by a finite overall constant $\Delta S>0$, \emph{i.e.}, $\Delta S [\phi] \geq \Delta S$, for all physical states $\phi$.…
