Determination of the impulsive Sturm-Liouville operator from a set of eigenvalues (Q2187929)

The following boundary value problem is considered: \[ -y''+M(x)y=\lambda\rho(x) y,\; 0<x<\pi,\; M(x)\in L_2(0,\pi), \] \[ y'(0)-hy(0)=y'(1)+Hy(0)=0, \] \[ y(\pi/2+0)=by(\pi/2-0),\; y'(\pi/2+0)=b^{-1}y'(\pi/2-0)+ay(\pi/2-0),\; b>0, \] where \(\rho(x)=1\) for \(x<\pi/2,\) and \(\rho(x)=\alpha^2\) for \(x>\pi/2\). The so-called partial inverse problem is studied which consists in constructing the potential \(q(x)\) on a part of the interval from given spectral characteristics provided that the potential is known a priori on the rest of the interval. Uniqueness theorems are proved for this class of inverse problems.
