Abstract:
We consider the boundary value problem generated on the finite closed interval
$x \in [0, 1]$ by the
$2 \times 2$ system of ordinary differential equations
$$ y' - B(x)y=\lambda A(x)y, \qquad A(x)=\operatorname{diag}\{a_1(x), a_2(x)\}, \quad a_1(x) < 0 < a_2(x), $$
and the boundary conditions
$$ U_0y(0) + U_1y(1)=0, $$
where
$y(x)=(y_1(x), y_2(x))^\top$,
$U_0$ and
$U_1$ are constant
$(2 \times 2)$ matrices, and the system coefficients
$a_j$ and
$b_{jk}$ are assumed to be absolutely continuous. In the regular case, we prove that the system of eigenfunctions and associated functions forms a Schauder basis in the space
$(L_p[0, 1])^2$, and in the case of almost regular boundary value problem of order
$m \in \mathbb{N}$, we prove the Schauder basis property in some subspace of the space
$(W_{p}^{m}[0, 1])^2$ with respect to the
$(L_p[0, 1])^2$-norm.
Keywords:
asymptotics of solutions of ordinary differential equations, Schauder basis in $L_p$, regular and almost regular boundary value problems.
