Inverse spectral theory for Sturm-Liouville problems with finite spectrum
For any positive integer $n$ and any given $n$ distinct real numbers we construct a Sturm-Liouville problem whose spectrum is precisely the given set of $n$ numbers. Such problems are of Atkinson type in the sense that the weight function or the reciprocal of the leading coefficient is identically zero …
