Abstract

We prove that there does not exist a smooth inhomogeneous string such the spectra of three particular boundary value problems describing its small vibrations coincide with those for a homogeneous string. These three boundary value problems are the Dirichlet problem on [0, 1/2],the Dirichlet problem on [1/2, l] ,and the Dirichlet-Neumann problem on[0, l].
