Abstract

Abstract: The inverse quantum scattering problem for the perturbed Bessel equation is considered. A direct and practical method for solving the problem is proposed. It allows one to reduce the inverse problem to a system of linear algebraic equations, and the potential is recovered from the first component of the solution vector of the system. The approach is based on a special form Fourier–Jacobi series representation for the transmutation operator kernel and the Gelfand–Levitan equation which serves for obtaining the system of linear algebraic equations. The convergence and stability of the method are proved as well as the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the truncated system. Numerical realization of the method is discussed. Results of numerical tests are provided revealing a remarkable accuracy and stability of the method.
