Basis properties of eigenfunctions of nonlinear Sturm-Liouville problems

We consider three nonlinear eigenvalue problems that consist of $$-y''+f(y^2)y=lambda y$$ with one of the following boundary conditions: $$displaylines{ y(0)=y(1)=0 quad y'(0)=p ,,cr y'(0)=y(1)=0 quad y(0)=p,, cr y'(0)=y'(1)=0 quad y(0)=p,, }$$ where $p$ is a positive constant. Under smoothness and monotonicity conditions on $f$, we show the existence and uniqueness of a sequence of eigenvalues ${lambda _n}$ and corresponding eigenfunctions ${y_n}$ such that $y_n(x)$ has precisely $n$ roots in the interval $(0,1)$, where $n=0,1,2,dots$. For the first boundary condition, we show that ${y_n}$ is a basis and that ${y_n/|y_n|}$ is a Riesz basis in the space $L_2(0,1)$. For the second and third boundary conditions, we show that ${y_n}$ is a Riesz basis
