Abstract

In this manuscript, we study the inverse problem for non self-adjoint Sturm--Liouville operator $-D^2+q$ with eigenparameter dependent boundary and discontinuity conditions inside a finite closed interval. By defining  a new Hilbert space and  using its spectral data of a kind, it is shown that the potential function can be uniquely determined by part of a set of values of eigenfunctions at some interior point and  parts of two  sets of eigenvalues.
