The Inverse Sturm-Liouville Problem and Finite Differences

by M. H. Pirovino

(Report number 1993-04)

Abstract
In this paper we give a summary of the main results in concerning the inverse Sturm-Liouville problem. We emphasize a convergence result for a Newton method based on finite difference approximation together with a correction technique first introduced by Paine, de Hoog and Anderssen.

Keywords: inverse eigenvalue problems, newton method,finite differences
