Inverse spectral results for AKNS systems with partial information on the potentials (Q5959820)

Let \(\{\mu_n(\alpha)\}_{n\in\mathbb{Z}}\) be the spectrum of the boundary value problem \[ BY'+Q(x)Y=\mu Y,\quad y_2(0)=y_1(1)\cos\alpha-y_2(1)\sin\alpha=0, \alpha\in[0,\pi), \] with \[ Y=\left( \begin{smallmatrix} y_1 \\ y_2 \end{smallmatrix}\right),\quad B=\left( \begin{smallmatrix} 0 & -1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{smallmatrix}\right),\quad Q(x)=\left( \begin{smallmatrix} -q(x) & p(x) \\ p(x) & q(x) \end{smallmatrix}\right), \] \(\varphi:= q-ip\in L^2(0,1)\), and \(q\) and \(p\) are real-valued. The main result of the paper is the following uniqueness theorem: Let \(a\in [0,1], \alpha\neq\beta, 1/l+1/k\geq 2a\). Then the specification of \(\varphi\) on \((a,1)\) and \(\{\mu_{ln}(\alpha), \mu_{kn}(\beta)\}_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}\) uniquely determines \(\alpha, \beta\) and \(\varphi\) a.e. on \((0,a)\).
