Eigenvalue Comparisons for Second-Order Linear Equations with Boundary Value Conditions on Time Scales

This paper studies the eigenvalue comparisons for second-order linear equations with boundary conditions on time scales. Using results from matrix algebras, the existence and comparison results concerning eigenvalues are obtained.
