For $s>-1$, $s\notin\mathbb N_0$, we compare two natural types of fractional Laplacians $(-\Delta)^s$, namely, the restricted Dirichlet and the spectral Neumann ones. We show that for the quadratic form of their difference taken on the…

We consider an inverse spectral problem for a class of singular AKNS operators $H\_a, a\in\N$ with an explicit singularity. We construct for each $a\in\N$, a standard map $\lambda^a\times\kappa^a$ with spectral data $\lambda^a$ and some…
