An eigenfunction is a type of eigenvector. If f(t) is an eigenfunction of D with eigenvalue λ, then Ab = λb. wikipedia.org

Eigenfunction in functional calculus Let $X$ be a complex Banach space, $A\in L(X)$ and $F$ be an analytic function in a neighborhood of $\sigma(A)$. Now I want to show that if $x\in X$ is an eigenfunction of $A$ corr...
Let $F(z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n (z-\lambda_0)^n$, with $\lambda$ inside the radius of convergence (you could just take $\lambda=\lambda_0$). Then $$ \begin{split} F(A)x &= \left(\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n (A-\lambda_0 I)^n x\right) \\\ &= \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_n (A-\lambda_0 I)^n x = \sum_{n=0}^\infty a_...

Eigenfunction and their orthogonality with respect to the weight function The Eigenfunction and their orthogonality with respect to the weight function $\sigma$ is defined as $$\int_{a}^{b}\phi _n\text{(x)}\phi _m\tex...
In which case, the $\tanh(\ldots)\sinh(\ldots)$ are the riven functions, since they are orthonormal, taking an inner product with the $m$-th eigenfunction

Eigenfunctions of a second derivative operator Consider the operator $L :=\frac{-d^2}{dy^2}+ \alpha^2 - K(y)$ on the space of functions $f(y) $ on $H^2(-a,a) \cap H_0^1(-a,a)$. Here $K(y)$ is an even function and $\al...
If $f$ satisfies, $$ -f''+a^2f-K(y)f=\lambda f, \quad f(-1)=f(1)=0. $$ then so do $$ f_{even}=\frac{1}{2}\big(f(x)+f(-x)\big), \quad f_{odd}=\frac{1}{2}\big(f(x)-f(-x)\big). $$ Hence, the eigenspace of our operator is spanned by odd and even eigenfunctions. We shall next show that only one of the tw...

First Eigenfunction of Simple Equation Consider the interval $[-a,a]$ and the following problem: $$\phi'' + \lambda\phi=0$$ $$ \phi(\pm a) = 0. $$ The obvious sequence of orthogonal eigenfunctions seems to be $\sin(...

Eigenfunction expansion solution to a PDE with a constant non homogeneous term I'm wondering if the method of finding a solution to a nonhomogeneous PDE by the method of eigenfunction expansion works if the nonhomogen...
An infinite series of sines can indeed converge to a constant, in the interior of the interval in question (I guess you have Dirichlet boundary conditions at the endpoints). If you look at the sum of that Fourier series on the whole real line you will see a square wave, where the part that you're in...

Show that the function is an eigenfunction of the equation I'm not sure how to use the bbcode so I've taken a screenshot instead: !enter image description here Came up on a past exam paper that I'm working towards ...
$$(\sin\lambda_nx)'=\lambda_n\cos\lambda_nx$$ $$(\sin\lambda_nx)'=-\lambda_n^2\sin\lambda_nx$$ So putting $\,\psi(x):=\sin\lambda_nx\,$ , we easily find the above are solutions to the given differential equation, and in order to have $\,\psi(1)=0\,$ we must choose $\,\lambda_n=k_n\pi\,\,,\,\,k_n\in\...

Note that it's an _eigenfunction_ not eigenvector. For example an eigenfunction with eigenvalue $\lambda$ of the operator $$\frac{d}{dx}$$ is a solution to $$\frac{d}{dx}f=\lambda f$$ which is $f= e^{\lambda

How to find the corresponding eigenfunction after determining the eigenvalues? I was reading this page (< example 4.1.4, which says: > Again $A$ cannot be zero if $\lambda$ is to be an eigenvalue, and $sin(\sqrt {\la...
The corresponding eigenfunction is then the result of plugging in the corresponding eigenvalue: $x_k(t) = \cos{k t}$. Note we ignore the constant $A$ here for now; the coefficient of an eigenfunction will be determined elsewhere.

How to show that λ is an eigenvalue of D by finding a corresponding eigenfunction Define the _differentiation operator_ $D$ to be the transformation $D : C_\infty(\mathbb R)\to C_\infty(\mathbb R)$ given by $D( f ) = ...
**Hint:** For a given number $\lambda$, consider $f(x)=e^{\lambda x}$, which is a vector in your vector space. Why is this an eigenvector? What is the associated eigenvalue?

You can recognise the function $k(x,y)$ as the Green's function for the operator $L = \frac{\text{d}^2}{\text{d} x^2}$ on the domain $[0,1]$ with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. If you now would be given the inhomogeneous differential equation $L v = f$, then the solution to that equation...
