Abstract: There are well-known inequalities among eigenvalues of right-definite Sturm-Liouville problems. In this paper, we study left-definite regular self-adjoint Sturm-Liouville problems with separated and coupled boundary conditions. For any fixed equation, we establish a sequence of inequalities among the eigenvalues for different boundary conditions, which is both theoretical and computational importance.

Key words: Sturm-Liouville problems, right-definiteness, left-definiteness, eigenvalue inequalities
