Second order linear differential equations with 2-point and integral boundary conditions.

In sophomore and junior level ordinary differential equations one studies the classical Sturm-Liouville boundary value problem, where the boundary conditions are of the separated type. It is well lmown that under very reasonable hypotheses this problem has a discrete set of non- trivial solutions f...
