Inverse Spectral Problem for Finite Jacobi Matrices With Zero Diagonal

Abstract

In this study, the necessary and sufficient conditions for solvability of an inverse spectral problem about eigenvalues and normalizing numbers for finite-order real Jacobi matrices with zero diagonal elements are established. Anexplicit procedure of reconstruction of the matrix from the spectral data consisting of the eigenvalues and normalizing numbers is given. Numerical examples and error analysis are provided to demonstrate the solution technique of the inverse problem. The results obtained are used to justify the solving procedure of the finite Langmuir lattice by the method of inverse spectral problem.
