Gesztesy F., Simon B. On the Determination of a Potential from Three Spectra (26K, AMSTeX) ABSTRACT. We prove that under suitable circumstances, the spectra of a Schr\"odinger operator on the three intervals $[0,1]$, $[0,a]$, and $[a,1]$ for some $a\in (0,1)$ uniquely determine the potential $q$ on $[0,1]$.
