Polarization tensors of planar domains as functions of the admittivity contrast
2014
(Electric) polarization tensors describe part of the leading order term of asymptotic voltage perturbations caused by low volume fraction inhomogeneities of the electrical properties of a medium. They depend on the geometry of the support of the inhomogeneities and on their admittivity contrast. Corresponding asymptotic formulas are of particular interest in the design of reconstruction algorithms for determining the locations and the material properties of inhomogeneities inside a body from measurements of current flows and associated voltage potentials on the body's surface. In this work we consider the two-dimensional case only and provide an analytic representation of the polarization t…
An inverse problem for the fractional Schr\"odinger equation in a magnetic field
2019
This paper shows global uniqueness in an inverse problem for a fractional magnetic Schr\"odinger equation (FMSE): an unknown electromagnetic field in a bounded domain is uniquely determined up to a natural gauge by infinitely many measurements of solutions taken in arbitrary open subsets of the exterior. The proof is based on Alessandrini's identity and the Runge approximation property, thus generalizing some previous works on the fractional Laplacian. Moreover, we show with a simple model that the FMSE relates to a long jump random walk with weights.
Calder\'on's problem for p-Laplace type equations
2016
We investigate a generalization of Calder\'on's problem of recovering the conductivity coefficient in a conductivity equation from boundary measurements. As a model equation we consider the p-conductivity equation with p strictly between one and infinity, which reduces to the standard conductivity equation when p equals two, and to the p-Laplace equation when the conductivity is constant. The thesis consists of results on the direct problem, boundary determination and detecting inclusions. We formulate the equation as a variational problem also when the conductivity may be zero or infinity in large sets. As a boundary determination result we recover the first order derivative of a smooth co…
Linearized Calder\'on problem and exponentially accurate quasimodes for analytic manifolds
2020
In this article we study the linearized anisotropic Calder\'on problem on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. This problem amounts to showing that products of pairs of harmonic functions of the manifold form a complete set. We assume that the manifold is transversally anisotropic and that the transversal manifold is real analytic and satisfies a geometric condition related to the geometry of pairs of intersecting geodesics. In this case, we solve the linearized anisotropic Calder\'on problem. The geometric condition does not involve the injectivity of the geodesic X-ray transform. Crucial ingredients in the proof of our result are the construction of Gaussian beam quasimodes on the…
Reconstruction from boundary measurements for less regular conductivities
2012
In this paper, following Nachman's idea and Haberman and Tataru's idea, we reconstruct $C^1$ conductivity $\gamma$ or Lipchitz conductivity $\gamma$ with small enough value of $|\nabla log\gamma|$ in a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map $\Lambda_{\gamma}$. In the appendix the authors and R. M. Brown recover the gradient of a $C^1$-conductivity at the boundary of a Lipschitz domain from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map $\Lambda_{\gamma}$.
Stability estimates for the magnetic Schr\"odinger operator with partial measurements
2020
In this article, we study stability estimates when recovering magnetic fields and electric potentials in a simply connected open subset in $R^n$ with $n \geq 3$, from measurements on open subsets of its boundary. This inverse problem is associated with a magnetic Schr\"odinger operator. Our estimates are quantitative versions of the uniqueness results obtained by D. Dos Santos Ferreira, C. E. Kenig, J. Sj\"ostrand and G. Uhlmann in [13]. The moduli of continuity are of logarithmic type.
Determining an unbounded potential for an elliptic equation with a power type nonlinearity
2022
In this article we focus on inverse problems for a semilinear elliptic equation. We show that a potential $q$ in $L^{n/2+\varepsilon}$, $\varepsilon>0$, can be determined from the full and partial Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. This extends the results from [M. Lassas, T. Liimatainen, Y.-H. Lin, and M. Salo, Partial data inverse problems and simultaneous recovery of boundary and coefficients for semilinear elliptic equations, Rev. Mat. Iberoam. (2021)] where this is shown for H\"older continuous potentials. Also we show that when the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map is restricted to one point on the boundary, it is possible to determine a potential $q$ in $L^{n+\varepsilon}$. The authors of arXiv:2202.0…
Uniqueness and stability of an inverse problem for a semi-linear wave equation
2020
We consider the recovery of a potential associated with a semi-linear wave equation on $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$, $n\geq 1$. We show a H\"older stability estimate for the recovery of an unknown potential $a$ of the wave equation $\square u +a u^m=0$ from its Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. We show that an unknown potential $a(x,t)$, supported in $\Omega\times[t_1,t_2]$, of the wave equation $\square u +a u^m=0$ can be recovered in a H\"older stable way from the map $u|_{\partial \Omega\times [0,T]}\mapsto \langle\psi,\partial_\nu u|_{\partial \Omega\times [0,T]}\rangle_{L^2(\partial \Omega\times [0,T])}$. This data is equivalent to the inner product of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map with a measurement fun…
A minimization problem with free boundary and its application to inverse scattering problems
2023
We study a minimization problem with free boundary, resulting in hybrid quadrature domains for the Helmholtz equation, as well as some application to inverse scattering problem.
Inverse problems for elliptic equations with fractional power type nonlinearities
2020
We study inverse problems for semilinear elliptic equations with fractional power type nonlinearities. Our arguments are based on the higher order linearization method, which helps us to solve inverse problems for certain nonlinear equations in cases where the solution for a corresponding linear equation is not known. By using a fractional order adaptation of this method, we show that the results of [LLLS20a, LLLS20b] remain valid for general power type nonlinearities.
