Bessel Property of the System of Root Functions of a Second-Order Singular Operator on an Interval

Resumo

For the system of root functions of an operator defined by the differential operation −u″ + p(x)u′ + q(x)u, x ∈ G = (0, 1), with complex-valued singular coefficients, sufficient conditions for the Bessel property in the space L₂(G) are obtained and a theorem on the unconditional basis property is proved. It is assumed that the functions p(x) and q(x) locally belong to the spaces L₂ and W₂⁻¹, respectively, and may have singularities at the endpoints of G such that q(x) = q_R(x) +q′S(x) and the functions q_S(x), p(x), q₂^S (x)w(x), p²(x)w(x), and q_R(x)w(x) are integrable on the whole interval G, where w(x) = x(1 − x).
