Ambarzumyan Theorems for Dirac Operators

We consider the inverse eigenvalue problems for stationary Dirac systems with differentiable self-adjoint matrix potential. The theorem of Ambarzumyan for a Sturm-Liouville problem is extended to Dirac operators, which are subject to separation boundary conditions or periodic (semi-periodic) boundary conditions, and some analogs of Ambarzumyan’s theorem are obtained. The proof is based on the existence and extremal properties of the smallest eigenvalue of corresponding vectorial Sturm-Liouville operators, which are the second power of Dirac operators.
