Abstract

In this paper, we consider the boundary value problems of the form

$$\begin{gathered} \varepsilon y'' - f(x,\varepsilon )y' + g(x,\varepsilon )y = 0 ( - a \leqslant x \leqslant b, 0< e \ll 1) \hfill \\ y( - a) = \alpha , y(b) = \beta \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$

where f (x,0) has several and multiple zeros on the interval [−a,b]. The conditions for exhibiting boundary and interior layers are given, and the corresponding asymptotic expansions of solutions are constructed.
