Abstract:

The m-dimensional vectorial Sturm-Liouville problem with Dirichlet boundary conditions on (0,1) is studied. We firstly discuss the relationship between the matrix-valued potential and the multiplicities of eigenvalues. We prove that if the multiplicities of eigenvalues of 01Q(x)dx are at most k (1km1), with finitely many exceptions, the multiplicities of eigenvalues of the vectorial problem are also at most k. Then, the inverse nodal problem is investigated with a different method. We show that if there exists an infinite eigenfunctions sequence {ynj,r(x,λnj,r)}j=1 which are all vectorial functions of type (CZ), then Q is simultaneously diagonalizable.
