An extension of the Cayley transform method for a parameterized generalized inverse eigenvalue problem

[EN] Since recent studies have shown that the Cayley transform method can be an effective iterative method for solving the inverse eigenvalue problem, in this work, we consider using an extension of it for solving a type of parameterized generalized inverse eigenvalue problem and prove its locally quadratic convergence. This type of inverse eigenvalue problem, which includes multiplicative and additive inverse eigenvalue problems, appears in many applications. Also, we consider the case where the given eigenvalues are multiple. In this case, we describe a modified problem that is not overdetermined and discuss the extension of the Cayley transform method for this modified problem. Finally, to demonstrate the effectiveness of these algorithms, we present some numerical examples to show that the proposed methods are practical and efficient.The authors would like to express their heartfelt thanks to the editor and anonymous referees for their useful comments and constructive suggestions that substantially improved the quality and presentation of this article.

Inverse Eigenvalue Problems for Perturbed Spherical Schroedinger Operators

We investigate the eigenvalues of perturbed spherical Schr\"odinger operators under the assumption that the perturbation $q(x)$ satisfies $x q(x) \in L^1(0,1)$. We show that the square roots of eigenvalues are given by the square roots of the unperturbed eigenvalues up to an decaying error depending on the behavior of $q(x)$ near $x=0$. Furthermore, we provide sets of spectral data which uniquely determine $q(x)$.Comment: 14 page

Structured Approaches to General Inverse Eigenvalue Problems

An inverse eigenvalue problem is one where a set or subset of (generalized) eigenvalues is specified and the matrices that generate it are sought. Many methods for solving inverse eigenvalue problems are only applicable to matrices of a specific type. In this chapter, two recently proposed methods for structured (direct) solutions of inverse eigenvalue problems are presented. The presented methods are not restricted to matrices of a specific type and are thus applicable to matrices of all types. For the first method, the Cayley–Hamilton theorem is developed for the generalized eigenvalue vibration problem. For a given (desired) frequency spectrum, many solutions are possible. Hence, a discussion of the required information and suggestions for including structural constraints are given. An algorithm for solving the inverse eigenvalue problem using the generalized Cayley–Hamilton theorem is then demonstrated. An algorithm for solving partially described systems is also specified. The Cayley–Hamilton theorem algorithm is shown to be a good tool for solving inverse generalized eigenvalue problems. Examples of application of the method are given. A second method, referred to as the inverse eigenvalue determinant method, is also introduced. This method provides another direct approach to the reconstruction of the matrices of the generalized eigenvalue problem, given knowledge of its eigenvalues and various physical parameters. As for the first method, there are no restrictions on the type of matrices allowed for the inverse problem. Examples of application of the method are also given, including application-oriented examples
