The paper is concerned with the completeness property of a system of root vectors of a boundary value problem for the following 2×2 Dirac type equationLy=−iB−1y′+Q(x)y=λy,y=col(y1,y2),x∈[0,1],B=diag(b1,b2),b1<0<b2,andQ∈W1n[0,1]⊗C2×2, subject to general non-regular two-point boundary conditions Cy(0)+Dy(1)=0. If b2=−b1=1, this equation is equivalent to the one dimensional Dirac equation.We establish a new completeness result for the system of root vectors of such boundary value problem with non-regular and even degenerate boundary conditions. We also present several explicit completeness results in terms of values Q(j)(0) and Q(j)(1). In the case of degenerate boundary conditions and the analytic Q(⋅), the criterion of the completeness property is established. We demonstrate our results on the explicit example of a complete system of vector quasi-exponential polynomials.Applications to the spectral synthesis for Dirac type operators are discussed. Moreover, applications to the completeness property for the damped string equation are provided.
