Orthogonality of Sturm-Liouville eigenfunctions
ID: orthogonality-of-sturm-liouville-eigenfunctions
For a regular self-adjoint Sturm-Liouville problem with positive weight and self-adjoint boundary conditions, eigenfunctions with distinct eigenvalues are orthogonal in the weighted inner product . Integration by parts proves this by equating and .
