Inverse spectral problem for a third-order differential operator

Abstract

Inverse spectral problem for a self-adjoint differential operator, which is the sum of the operator of the third derivative on a finite interval and of the operator of multiplication by a real function (potential), is solved. Closed system of integral linear equations is obtained. Via solution to this system, the potential is calculated. It is shown that the main parameters of the obtained system of equations are expressed via spectral data of the initial operator. It is established that the potential is unambiguously defined by the four spectra.
