A partial inverse problem for non-self-adjoint Sturm–Liouville operators with a constant delay

In this paper, we study a partial inverse spectral problem for non-self-adjoint Sturm–Liouville operators with a constant delay and show that subspectra of two boundary value problems with one common boundary condition are sufficient to determine the complex potential. We developed the Horváth’s method in [M. Horváth, On the inverse spectral theory of Schrödinger and Dirac operators, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 353 2001, 10, 4155–4171] for the self-adjoint Sturm–Liouville operator without delay into the non-self-adjoint Sturm–Liouville differential operator with a constant delay.
