A class of higher order inverse spectral problems

In this paper, we consider the recovery of third-order differential operators from two spectra, as well as fourth-order or fifth-order differential operators from three spectra, where these differential operators are endowed with complex-valued distributional coefficients. For the case of multiple spectra, we first establish the relationship between spectra and the Weyl-Yurko matrix. Secondly, we prove the uniqueness theorem for the solution of the inverse problems. Our approach allows us to obtain results for the general case of complex-valued distributional coefficients.
