Abstract
The author considers the inverse problem for a Sturm-Liouville equation with two interior discontinuities. She assumes that the potential is known in half the interval and that one boundary condition is given. She then shows that the eigenvalues uniquely determine the potential in the whole interval and the other boundary condition, as well as the positions of and conditions for the discontinuities.Keywords
