Neumann series of Bessel functions for the solutions of the Sturm-Liouville equation in impedance form and related boundary value problems
arXiv:2601.04513v1 Announce Type: cross
Abstract: We present a Neumann series of spherical Bessel functions representation for solutions of the Sturm--Liouville equation in impedance form \[ (\kappa(x)u')' + \lambda \kappa(x)u = 0,\quad 0 < x < L, \] in the case where $\kappa \in W^{1,2}(0,L)$ and has no zeros on the interval of interest. The $x$-dependent coefficients of this representation can be constructed explicitly by means of a simple recursive integration procedure. Moreover, we derive bounds for the truncation error, which are uniform whenever the spectral parameter $\rho=\sqrt{\lambda}$ satisfies a condition of the form $|\operatorname{Im}\rho|\leq C$. Based on these representations, we develop a numerical method for solving spectral problems that enables the computation of eigenvalues with non-deteriorating accuracy.
