On a method for solving the inverse scattering problem on the line

Abstract

A method for solving the inverse scattering problem on the line is proposed. It is based on a Fourier‐Laguerre series representation of the integral transmutation kernel. Substitution of the representation into the Gel'fand‐Levitan‐Marchenko equation leads to a linear algebraic system of equations and consequently to a simple algorithm for recovering the potential.
