Abstract:
The Marchenko equation for the N ×N
Zakharov-Shabat operator on the line is given via the Riemann-Hilbert
problem. It is derived on the basis of the direct spectral problem which was
solved through the Fredholm integral equation. In the 2 ×2 problem
the Marchenko equations for the right and the left inverse problems are
separated but in the N ×N case we obtain a coupled Marchenko
equations. The integral kernel of the Marchenko equation is shown to be of
the Hilbert-Schmidt type for a general class of Schwarz type potentials and
hence in the inverse problem the equation is solvable by the theorem of the
Fredholm alternatives. Finally reduction to the 2 ×2 case is briefly
discussed.
