Inverse Spectral Problems for Linear Differential Operators and Their Applications (Analytical Methods and Special Functions)

Aims to construct the inverse problem theory for ordinary non-self-adjoint differential operators of arbitary order on the half-line and on a finite interval. The book consists of two parts: in the first part the author presents a general inverse problem of recovering differential equations with integrable coefficients when the behaviour of the spectrum is arbitrary. The Weyl matrix is introduced and studied as a spectral characteristic. The second part of the book is devoted to solving incomplete inverse problems when a priori information about the operator or its spectrum is available and these problems are significant in applications.
