We solve the inverse spectral problems for the class of Sturm--Liouville operators with singular real-valued potentials from the Sobolev space W^{s-1}_2(0,1), s\in[0,1]. The potential is recovered from two spectra or from the spectrum and…
We show that all self-adjoint extensions of semi-bounded Sturm--Liouville operators with general limit-circle endpoint(s) can be obtained via an additive singular form bounded self-adjoint perturbation of rank equal to the deficiency…
This paper is devoted to the study of a partial inverse spectral problem for Sturm-Liouville operators with frozen arguments on a star-shaped graph. The potentials are assumed to be known a priori on all edges except one, and the objective…

Spectral asymptotics of the Sturm-Liouville problem with a singular self-conformal weight measure is considered. A stronger version of the bounded distortion property is assumed for the conformal iterated function system corresponding to…
The spectrum of the singular indefinite Sturm-Liouville operator $$A=\text{\rm sgn}(\cdot)\bigl(-\tfrac{d^2}{dx^2}+q\bigr)$$ with a real potential $q\in L^1(\mathbb R)$ covers the whole real line and, in addition, non-real eigenvalues may…
We consider the propagation of surface shear waves in a half-plane, whose shear modulus $\mu(y)$ and density $\rho(y)$ depend continuously on the depth coordinate $y$. The problem amounts to studying the parametric Sturm-Liouville equation…
Second order SUSY transformations between real and complex potentials for three important from physical point of view Sturm-Liouville problems, namely, problems with the Dirichlet boundary conditions for a finite interval, for a half axis…
In this paper, we present a new discontinuous Sturm Liouville problem with symmetrically located discontinuities which are defined depending on a neighborhood of a midpoint of the interval. Also the problem contains an eigenparameter in one…
We study an indefinite Sturm-Liouville problem due to Richardson whose complicated eigenvalue dependence on a parameter has been a puzzle for decades. In atomic physics a process exists that inverts the usual Schrodinger situation of an…

Inverse spectral problems consist in recovering operators by their spectral characteristics. The problem of recovering the Sturm-Liouville operator with one frozen argument was studied earlier in works of various authors. In this paper, we…

We consider the spectral function $\rho(\mu)$ $(\mu \geq 0)$ for the Sturm-Liouville equation $y^{''}+(\lambda-q)y =0$ on $[0,\infty)$ with the boundary condition $y(0)=0$ and where $q$ has slow decay $O(x^{-\alpha})$ $(a>0)$ as $x\to…
We prove some new results which justify the use of interval truncation as a means of regularising a singular fourth order Sturm-Liouville problem near a singular endpoint. Of particular interest are the results in the so called lim-3 case,…
