Abstract:
The following inverse eigenvalue problem for Jacobi matrices is considered: Problem IEP.Given
λ,μ∈
R(
λ<
μ and
x,y∈
Rn,
x≠0,
y≠0, find
n×
n Jacobi matrix
J such that (
λ,x) and (
μ,y) are exactly the i-th and
j-th (i≠
j) eigenpairs of the Jacobi matrix
J, respectively. The eigenanalysis of Jacobi matrices is given. The necessary and sufficient condition is obtained for one eigenpair to be exactly the i-th eigenpair of a Jacobi matrix. Some necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of solution of the Problem IEP are given.
