TY - JOUR A1 - Böckmann, Christine A1 - Kammanee, Athassawat T1 - Broyden method for inverse non-symmetric Sturm-Liouville problems JF - BIT : numerical mathematics ; the leading applied mathematics journal for all computational mathematicians N2 - In this paper, we propose a derivative-free method for recovering symmetric and non-symmetric potential functions of inverse Sturm-Liouville problems from the knowledge of eigenvalues. A class of boundary value methods obtained as an extension of Numerov's method is the major tool for approximating the eigenvalues in each Broyden iteration step. Numerical examples demonstrate that the method is able to reduce the number of iteration steps, in particular for non-symmetric potentials, without accuracy loss.
