Extract

In a previous paper [1] we gave examples of positive integral operators on L2( − 1, 1) and estimates of their eigenvalues. In theorem 1 we treated operators with kernels of the form Σan sn tn, where (an) is a sequence of non-negative real numbers satisfying an ≃ α2n and 0 < α < 1 (here and throughout the notation an ≃ bn shall mean that an = O(bn) and bn = O(an)). In this paper we prove the more comprehensive Theorem 1 a below; theorem 1 of [1] is just the case b = 0. The term q(2α/(1 + α2)) will be explained immediately after the statement of the result.
