Inverse Sturm–Liouville problem with spectral polynomials in nonsplitting boundary conditions

Abstract

Theorems on the unique reconstruction of a Sturm–Liouville problem with spectral polynomials in nonsplitting boundary conditions are proved. Two spectra and finitely many eigenvalues (one spectrum and finitely many eigenvalues for a symmetric potential) of the problem itself are used as the spectral data. The results generalize the Levinson uniqueness theorem to the case of nonsplitting boundary conditions containing polynomials in the spectral parameter. Algorithms and examples of solving relevant inverse problems are also presented.
