In this article, we consider dissipative Sturm–Liouville operators in the limit-circle case on time scales. Then, using the Livšic’s Theorem, we prove the completeness of the system of root vectors for dissipative Sturm–Liouville operators. 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

We study a restriction of the Hilbert transform as an operator HT from L (a2, a4) to L(a1, a3) for real numbers a1 < a2 < a3 < a4. The operator HT arises in tomographic reconstruction from limited data, more precisely in the method of differentiated back-projection (DBP). There, the reconstruction requires recovering a family of one-dimensional functions f supported on compact intervals [a2, a4...

This extended abstract is a summary of the main results in [4]. We consider a stability result for the inverse problem associated with the Sturm-Liouville equation −y′′ + q0(x)y = λy, x ∈ (0, 1), in which the potential q0 ∈ L(0, 1) is allowed to be complex-valued and the spectral data consists of the firstN Dirichlet-Dirichlet eigenvalues and the firstN Dirichlet-Neumann eigenvalues, determined...

This paper gives constructive algorithms for the classical inverse Sturm-Liouville problem. It is shown that many of the formulations of this problem are equivalent to solving an overdetermined boundary value problem for a certain hyperbolic operator. Two methods of solving this latter problem are then provided, and numerical examples are presented.
