Extract
Define the self-adjoint operator
where r(x) > 0 on (0, ∞) and q and p are real-valued. The coefficient q is assumed to be differentiate on (0, ∞) and r is assumed to be twice differentia t e on (0, ∞).
The oscillatory behavior of L4 as well as the general even order operator has been considered by Leigh ton and Nehari [5], Glazman [2], Reid [7], Hinton [3], Barrett [1], Hunt and Namb∞diri [4], Schneider [8], and Lewis [6].
