Inverse spectral reconstruction problem for the convolution operator perturbed by a one-dimensional operator

We consider a one-dimensional perturbation of the convolution operator. We study the inverse reconstruction problem for the convolution component using the characteristic numbers under the assumption that the perturbation summand is known a priori. The problem is reduced to the solution of the so-called basic nonlinear integral equation with singularity. We prove the global solvability of this nonlinear equation. On the basis of these results, we prove a uniqueness theorem and obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the solvability of the inverse problem.     

Inverse spectral problem for the operators with non‐local potential

The main object under consideration in the paper is the second derivative operator on a finite interval with zero boundary conditions perturbed by a self‐adjoint integral operator with the degenerate kernel (non‐local potential). The inverse problem, i.e., the reconstruction of the perturbation from the spectral data, is solved by means of the step‐by‐step procedure based on the n‐interlacing property of the spectrum.     

Half-inverse problem for diffusion operators on the finite interval

The potential function q(x) in the regular and singular Sturm-Liouville problem can be uniquely determined from two spectra. Inverse problem for diffusion operator given at the finite interval eigenvalues, normal numbers also on two spectra are solved. Half-inverse spectral problem for a Sturm-Liouville operator consists in reconstruction of this operator by its spectrum and half of the potential. In this study, by using the Hochstadt and Lieberman's method we show that if q(x) is prescribed on , then only one spectrum is sufficient to determine q(x) on the interval for diffusion operator.     

Transformation Operator for Jacobi Matrices with Asymptotically Periodic Coefficients

We construct the transformation operator for the scattering problem with a periodic background under the assumption that the coefficients of the perturbation have a first finite moment. By means of the Marchenko approach [Marchenko, V. (1986) Sturm–Liouville Operators and Applications. Birkhäuser, Basel, Switzerland] we derive an estimate on the kernel of this transformation operator that allow us to study the inverse problem solution in the prescribed class of perturbations.     

Splitting method for an inverse source problem in parabolic differential equations: Error analysis and applications

In this work, we present a numerical method based on a splitting algorithm to find the solution of an inverse source problem with the integral condition. The source term is reconstructed by using the specified data and by employing the Lie splitting method, we decompose the equation into linear and nonlinear parts. Each subproblem is solved by the Fourier transform and then by combining the solutions of subproblems, the solution of the original problem is computed. Moreover, the framework of strongly continuous semigroup (or C₀-semigroup) is employed in error analysis of operator splitting method for the inverse problem. The convergence of the proposed method is also investigated and proved. Finally, some numerical examples in one, two, and three-dimensional spaces are provided to confirm the efficiency and capability of our work compared with some other well-known methods.     

On the determination of the impulsive Sturm–Liouville operator with the eigenparameter-dependent boundary conditions

In the present work, we consider the inverse problem for the impulsive Sturm–Liouville equations with eigenparameter-dependent boundary conditions on the whole interval (0,π) from interior spectral data. We prove two uniqueness theorems on the potential q(x) and boundary conditions for the interior inverse problem, and using the Weyl function technique, we show that if coefficients of the first boundary condition, that is, h₁,h₂, are known, then the potential function q(x) and coefficients of the second boundary condition, that is, H₁,H₂, are uniquely determined by information about the eigenfunctions at the midpoint of the interval and one spectrum or partial information on the eigenfunctions at some internal points and some of two spectra.     

A degenerate kernel method for eigenvalue problems of compact integral operators

We consider the approximation of eigenfunctions of a compact integral operator with a smooth kernel by a degenerate kernel method. By interpolating the kernel of the integral operator in both the variables, we prove that the error bounds for eigenvalues and for the distance between the spectral subspaces are of the orders h ^2r and h ^r respectively. By iterating the eigenfunctions we show that the error bounds for eigenfunctions are of the orders h ^2r . We give the numerical results.      

Weighted restriction theorems for space curves

Consider a nondegenerate Cn curve γ(t) in Rn, n?2, such as the curve γ₀(t)=(t,t²,…,tn), t∈I, where I is an interval in R. We first prove a weighted Fourier restriction theorem for such curves, with a weight in a Wiener amalgam space, for the full range of exponents p, q, when I is a finite interval. Next, we obtain a generalization of this result to some related oscillatory integral operators. In particular, our results suggest that this is a quite general phenomenon which occurs, for instance, when the associated oscillatory integral operator acts on functions f with a fixed compact support. Finally, we prove an analogue, for the Fourier extension operator (i.e. the adjoint of the Fourier restriction operator), of the two-weight norm inequality of B. Muckenhoupt for the Fourier transform. Here I may be either finite or infinite. These results extend two results of J. Lakey on the plane to higher dimensions.

We prove that dense subset of the nodal points determines the coefficients of differential part of operator and gives partial information for integral part of it.     

The transmutation operator method for efficient solution of the inverse Sturm‐Liouville problem on a half‐line

The inverse Sturm‐Liouville problem on a half‐line is considered. With the aid of a Fourier‐Legendre series representation of the transmutation integral kernel and the Gel'fand‐Levitan equation, the numerical solution of the problem is reduced to a system of linear algebraic equations. The potential q is recovered from the first coefficient of the Fourier‐Legendre series. The resulting numerical method is direct and simple. The results of the numerical experiments are presented.     

A method for finding coefficients of a quasilinear hyperbolic equation

The inverse problem of finding the coefficients q(s) and p(s) in the equation u _tt = a ² u _xx + q(u)u _t ? p(u)u _x is investigated. As overdetermination required in the inverse setting, two additional conditions are set: a boundary condition and a condition with a fixed value of the timelike variable. An iteration method for solving the inverse problem is proposed based on an equivalent system of integral equations of the second kind. A uniqueness theorem and an existence theorem in a small domain are proved for the inverse problem to substantiate the convergence of the algorithm.     

The Vector-Valued Big <Emphasis Type="Italic">q</Emphasis>-Jacobi Transform

Big q-Jacobi functions are eigenfunctions of a second-order q-difference operator L. We study L as an unbounded self-adjoint operator on an L ²-space of functions on ℝ with a discrete measure. We describe explicitly the spectral decomposition of L using an integral transform ℱ with two different big q-Jacobi functions as a kernel, and we construct the inverse of ℱ.      

On the basis property of root functions of a periodic problem with an integral perturbation of the boundary condition

We consider the spectral problem for the Schrödinger operator with an integral perturbation in the periodic boundary conditions. The unperturbed problem is assumed to have multiple eigenvalues and a system of eigenfunctions forming a Riesz basis in L ₂(0, 1). We show that the basis property of systems of root functions of the problem can change under arbitrarily small changes in the kernel of the integral perturbation.     

Full discretization of a nonlinear parabolic problem containing volterra operators and an unknown dirichlet boundary condition

The reconstruction of an unknown solely time‐dependent Dirichlet boundary condition in a nonlinear parabolic problem containing a linear and a nonlinear Volterra operator is considered. The inverse problem is converted into a variational problem in which the unknown Dirichlet condition is eliminated using a given integral overdetermination. A time‐discrete recurrent approximation scheme is designed, using Backward Euler's method. The convergence of the approximations towards a solution of the variational problem is proved under appropriate assumptions on the data and on the Volterra operators. The uniqueness of this solution is shown in the case that the nonlinear Volterra operator satisfies a particular inequality. Moreover, the Finite Element Method is used to discretize the time‐discrete approximation scheme in space. Finally, full‐discrete error estimates are derived for a particular choice of the finite elements. The corresponding convergence rates are supported by a numerical experiment. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 31: 1444–1460, 2015     

Asymptotic analysis of non-self-adjoint Hill operators

We obtain uniform asymptotic formulas for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Sturm-Liouville operators L _t (q) with a potential q ∈ L ₁[0,1] and t-periodic boundary conditions, t ∈ (?π, π]. Using these formulas, we find sufficient conditions on the potential q such that the number of spectral singularities in the spectrum of the Hill operator L(q) in L ₂(?∞,∞) is finite. Then we prove that the operator L(q) has no spectral singularities at infinity and it is an asymptotically spectral operator provided that the potential q satisfies sufficient conditions.

The conjugation problem on an infinite set of intervals

It is known that if path of integration consists of a finite number of intervals, then: (1) in the case of a Fredholm-type kernel, the index of the Fredholm operator is zero; (2) in the case of a Cauchy-type kernel, the index of the singular integration operator is a finite number (possible zero). Study of the conjugate boundary-value problem on an infinite set of intervals brings out new facts. The following may be noted: (1) A homogeneous boundary-value problem is always solvable in the classK, which is a natural generalization of that of piecewise analytic functions [1]. (2) Associated (conjugated) homogeneous boundary-value problems have any number of linearly independent solutions in the associated (conjugated) classes, so that the notion of class index is no longer relevant. (3) Associated (conjugated) homogeneous singular integral equations have any number of linearly independent solutions in the associated (conjugated) spacesL _p, L_q, p^?1+q^?1=1, so that the notion of operator index is no longer relevant The general theory of the problems under consideration is satisfactorily illustrated by the simplest case—a set of intervals on the real axis. For this reason the line of discontinuities (integration path) in the present paper is part of the real axis. The paper generalizes the results of [2–4]. Relevant work includes [5].     

Operators as spectral integrals of operator-valued functions from the study of multivariate stationary stochastic processes

P. Masani and the author have previously answered the question, “When is an operator on a Hilbert space $\text{H}$ the integral of a complex-valued function with respect to a given spectral (projection-valued) measure?” In this paper answers are given to the question, “When is a linear operator from $\text{H}$^q to $\text{H}$^p the integral of a spectral measure?”; here the values of the integrand are linear operators from the square-summable q-tuples of complex numbers to the square-summable p-tuples of complex numbers, and our spectral measure for $\text{H}$^q is the “inflation” of a spectral measure for $\text{H}$. In the course of this paper, we make available tools for handling the spectral analysis of q-variate weakly stationary processes, 1 ≤ q ≤ ∞, which should enable researchers to deal in the future with the case q = ∞. We show as one application of our theory that if U = ∫(in0, 2π]e^?iθE(dθ) is a unitary operator on $\text{H}$ and if T is a bounded linear operator from $\text{H}$^q to $\text{H}$^q (1 ≤ q ≤ ∞) which is a prediction operator for each stationary process (Uⁿx)_?∞^∞ ?$\text{H}$^q (for each x = (xⁱ)_i^j ∈ $\text{H}$^q, Uⁿx = (Uⁿxⁱ)_i=1^q), then T is a spectral integral, ∫(_0,2π)]Φ(θ) E(dθ), and the Banach norm of T, |T|_B = ess sup |Φ(θ)|_B.     

Inverse Sturm–Liouville problems with the potential known on an interior subinterval

The uniqueness problem of inverse Sturm–Liouville problems with the potential known on an interior subinterval is considered. We prove that the potential on the entire interval and boundary conditions are uniquely determined in terms of the known eigenvalues and some information on the eigenfunctions at some interior point (interior spectral data). Moreover, we also concern with the situation where the potential q is C^2k-smoothness at some given points.     

Inverse spectral problems for the Sturm-Liouville operator on a d-star graph

In this work, we consider inverse spectral problems for the Sturm-Liouville differential operator on a d-star-type graph with standard matching conditions in the internal vertex, where the integer d?2. By using the Yurko's method (Yurko (2008) [27], Yurko (2009) [28]) we show that

(1)

if the potential function qj(x) on a fixed edge ej is prescribed on the interval , then the reciprocal of d of the spectrum suffices to determine qj(x) on the whole interval [0,π];

(2)

the 2 over d of the spectrum suffices to determine qj(x) on a fixed edge ej.
