Inverse spectral problems for singular non-selfadjoint differential operators with discontinuities in an interior point (Q4550319)

The authors study the inverse spectral problem for the Sturm-Liouville equation \[ -y''+q(x)y = \lambda y, \quad x\in (0,a)\cup (a,\infty), \] with a jump condition in an interior point \(x=a: (y,y')^t(a+0) = A(y, y')^t(a-0)\) and the boundary condition \(y'(0)=hy(0)\). The potential \(q(x)\) is assumed to be a complex-valued function vanishing at infinity such that \((1+x)q(x)\in L_1(0, \infty)\). The authors introduce appropriate spectral data (an analogue of the Weyl function), prove a uniqueness theorem and give a reconstruction procedure based on an integral equation obtained by the contour integration method.
