Xz. Ji, ON A SHOOTING ALGORITHM FOR STURM-LIOUVILLE EIGENVALUE PROBLEMS WITH PERIODIC AND SEMI-PERIODIC BOUNDARY-CONDITIONS, Journal of computational physics, 111(1), 1994, pp. 74-80
This paper is concerned with the eigenvalues of Sturm-Liouville proble
ms with periodic and semi-periodic boundary conditions to be approxima
ted by a shooting algorithm. The proposed technique is based on the ap
plication of the Floquet theory. Convergence analysis and a general gu
ideline to provide starting values for computed eigenvalues are presen
ted. Some numerical results are also reported. (C) 1994 Academic Press
