A general comparison theorem is extracted from the proof of a recent comparison theorem of Leighton and Oo Kian Ke. The result is applied to a comparison theorem for focal points.

AbstractThis paper gives a generalization of the Sturm comparison theorem for differential equations (p): y″ = p(t)y, (q): y″ = q(t)y under the assumption that the function p − q changes its sign exactly once on [a, b] or ∝tbp − q, ∝atp − q maintain the sign on [a, b].

A new look at an old comparison theorem [PDF]
summary:We present an integral comparison theorem which guarantees the global existence of a solution of the generalized Riccati equation on the given interval $[a,b)$ when it is known that certain majorant Riccati equation has a global solution on $[a,b)

The theory of $u_{0}$-positive operators with respect to a cone in a Banach space is applied to the linear differential equations $u^{(4)}+\lambda_{1} p(x)u=0$ and $u^{(4)}+\lambda_{2} q(x)u=0$, $0\leq x\leq 1$, with each satisfying the boundary ...

Comparison theorem for oscillation of fourth-order nonlinear retarded dynamic equations
This work is concerned with oscillation of a class of fourth-order nonlinear delay dynamic equations on a time scale. A new comparison theorem is established that improves related results reported in the literature.

A Comparison Theorem for Eigenfunctions [PDF]
A comparison theorem of Sturm's type is obtained for eigenfunctions of general linear elliptic partial differential operators of second order on bounded domains of n-dimensional Euclidean space. The proof is almost immediate from an earlier identity of the author. The theorem is shown to be stronger than some recent theorems of Kurt Kreith.

On Leighton's comparison theorem
We give a simple proof of a fairly flexible comparison theorem for equations of the type $-(p(u'+su))'+rp(u'+su)+qu=0$ on a finite interval where $1/p$, $r$, $s$, and $q$ are real and integrable. Flexibility is provided by two functions which may be chosen freely (within limits) according to the situation at hand.
