摘要
We consider a class of boundary value problems of the second order difference equation Δ(ri-1Δ yi-1)-b iyi+λaiyi = 0, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, y0 = α yn, yn+1 = α y 1. The class of problems considered includes those with antiperiodic, Dirichlet, and periodic boundary conditions. We focus on the structure of eigenvalues of this class of problems and comparisons of all eigenvalues as the coefficients {ai}i=1n,{bi} i=1n, and {ri}i=0n change. © 2008 KSCAM and Springer-Verlag.
