On local Borg-Marchenko uniqueness results (Q1581630): Difference between revisions

The authors give a new proof of the fact that if the Weyl-Titchmarsh functions \(m_1\) and \(m_2\) of two 1D Schrödinger operators \(-d^2/dx^2+q_j(x)\), \(j=1\), 2, in \(L^2([0,\infty))\) with Dirichlet condition at \(x=0\) and potentials integrable on \((0,R)\) for all \(R>0\), satisfy \(|m_1(z)-m_2(z)|=O(\exp\{-2a\text{Im} \sqrt z\})\) for some \(a>0\) as \(|z|\to\infty\) along a complex ray, then \(q_1=q_2\) a.e.\ on \([0,a]\). Variants for bounded intervals, more general boundary conditions, and for systems are included.
