Abstract

Let be any positive number. For any non-negative potential , we show that for any solution of in with on , and for any form , the function has a zero in each closed interval of with length . A similar result of uniform oscillation property on each interval of length at least equal to is established for all weak solutions of the equation in with on where is a nonnegative essentially bounded coefficient. These results apply in particular to any finite linear combination of evaluations of the solution at arbitrary points of .
