On basis property of root functions for a class of the second order differential operators

It is well known that the Sturmian theory is an important tool in solving numerous problems of mathematical physics. Usually, eigenvalue parameter appears linearly only in the differential equation of the classic Sturm-Liouville problems. However, in mathematical physics there are also problems, which contain eigenvalue parameter not only in differential equation, but also in the boundary conditions.
In this paper, we consider a Sturm-Liouville equation with the eigenparameter dependent boundary condition and with transmission conditions at two points of discontinuity. The aim of this paper is to investigate the completeness, minimality and basis properties of rootfunctions for the considered boundary value problem.
