Isospectral Sets for Fourth-Order Ordinary Differential Operators

Let L(p)u = D4u - (p1u’)’ + p2u be a fourth-order differential operator acting on L2[0; 1] with p ≡ (p1; p2) belonging to L2ℝ[0, 1] x L2ℝ[0, 1] and boundary conditions u(0) = u\u27\u27(0) = u(1) = u\u27\u27(1) = 0. We study the isospectral set of L(p) when L(p) has simple spectrum. In particular we show that for such p, the isospectral manifold is a real-analytic submanifold of L2ℝ[0, 1] x L2ℝ[0, 1] which has infinite dimension and codimension. A crucial step in the proof is to show that the gradients of the eigenvalues of L(p) with respect to p are linearly independent: we study them as solutions of a non-self-ajdoint fifth-order system, the Borg system, among whose eigenvectors are the gradients
