A laplace type problem for three lattices with non-convex cell
2016
In this paper we consider three lattices with cells represented in Fig. 1, 3 and 5 and we determine the probability that a random segment of constant length intersects a side of lattice. c ⃝2016 All rights reserved.
Three viewpoints on the integral geometry of foliations
1999
We deal with three different problems of the multidimensional integral geometry of foliations. First, we establish asymptotic formulas for integrals of powers of curvature of foliations obtained by intersecting a foliation by affine planes. Then we prove an integral formula for surfaces of contact of an affine hyperplane with a foliation. Finally, we obtain a conformally invariant integral-geometric formula for a foliation in three-dimensional space.
Geodesic ray transform with matrix weights for piecewise constant functions
2019
We show injectivity of the geodesic X-ray transform on piecewise constant functions when the transform is weighted by a continuous matrix weight. The manifold is assumed to be compact and nontrapping of any dimension, and in dimension three and higher we assume a foliation condition. We make no assumption regarding conjugate points or differentiability of the weight. This extends recent results for unweighted transforms.
Tensor tomography: Progress and challenges
2013
We survey recent progress in the problem of recovering a tensor field from its integrals along geodesics. We also propose several open problems.
RECOVERY OF THE SOUND SPEED FOR THE ACOUSTIC WAVE EQUATION FROM PHASELESS MEASUREMENTS
2018
We recover the higher order terms for the acoustic wave equation from measurements of the modulus of the solution. The recovery of these coefficients is reduced to a question of stability for inverting a Hamiltonian flow transform, not the geodesic X-ray transform encountered in other inverse boundary problems like the determination of conformal factors. We obtain new stability results for the Hamiltonian flow transform, which allow to recover the higher order terms.
The Calderón problem with partial data on manifolds and applications
2013
We consider Calderon's inverse problem with partial data in dimensions $n \geq 3$. If the inaccessible part of the boundary satisfies a (conformal) flatness condition in one direction, we show that this problem reduces to the invertibility of a broken geodesic ray transform. In Euclidean space, sets satisfying the flatness condition include parts of cylindrical sets, conical sets, and surfaces of revolution. We prove local uniqueness in the Calderon problem with partial data in admissible geometries, and global uniqueness under an additional concavity assumption. This work unifies two earlier approaches to this problem (\cite{KSU} and \cite{I}) and extends both. The proofs are based on impr…
The Geodesic Ray Transform on Spherically Symmetric Reversible Finsler Manifolds
2023
We show that the geodesic ray transform is injective on scalar functions on spherically symmetric reversible Finsler manifolds where the Finsler norm satisfies a Herglotz condition. We use angular Fourier series to reduce the injectivity problem to the invertibility of generalized Abel transforms and by Taylor expansions of geodesics we show that these Abel transforms are injective. Our result has applications in linearized boundary rigidity problem on Finsler manifolds and especially in linearized elastic travel time tomography.
Pestov identities and X-ray tomography on manifolds of low regularity
2021
We prove that the geodesic X-ray transform is injective on scalar functions and (solenoidally) on one-forms on simple Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ with $g \in C^{1,1}$. In addition to a proof, we produce a redefinition of simplicity that is compatible with rough geometry. This $C^{1,1}$-regularity is optimal on the H\"older scale. The bulk of the article is devoted to setting up a calculus of differential and curvature operators on the unit sphere bundle atop this non-smooth structure.
A Laplace type problem for a lattice with cell composed by two trapezius and a triangle
2014
In the previous papers, [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9] and [10] the authors study some Laplace problem for different lattices. In this paper we determine the probability that a random segment of constant length intersects a side of lattice with cell represented in fig.1

2016
In this paper we use an approach based on a Buffon-Laplace type problem for an irregular hexagonal lattice and obstacles to study some problems about analysis of the railway network operations safety in the presence of different obstacles on the route.
