In a recent paper we demonstrated how the simplest model for varying alpha may be interpreted as the effect of a dielectric material, generalized to be consistent with Lorentz invariance. Unlike normal dielectrics, such a medium cannot…

In this article, we investigate the fractional Borg-Levinson problem, an inverse spectral problem focused on recovering potentials from boundary spectral data. We demonstrate that the potential can, in fact, be uniquely determined by this…
