Sturm-liouville problem

1.  (a)     Find the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the boundary-value problem.
            x2y'' + xy' + λ y = 0,  y(1) = 0,  y(5) = 0.
    
    (b)    Put the differential equation in self -adjoint form.

     (c)    Give an orthogonality relation.

2. Hermite's differential equation

y'' -2xy' + 2ny = , n = 0, 1, 2,...
        
         has polynomial solutions Hn(x). Put the equation in self-adjoint and give an orthogonality relation.
