    We consider the inverse impedance tomography problem in the plane. Using Bukhgeim's scattering data for the Dirac problem, we prove that the conductivity is uniquely determined by the Dirichlet-to-Neuman map. Read More: http://epubs.siam.org/doi/abs/10.1137/17M112098

    Uniqueness in Calderon's problem with Lipschitz conductivities

    Full text link
    We use X^{s,b}-inspired spaces to prove a uniqueness result for Calderon's problem in a Lipschitz domain under the assumption that the conductivity is Lipschitz. For Lipschitz conductivities, we obtain uniqueness for conductivities close to the identity in a suitable sense. We also prove uniqueness for arbitrary C^1 conductivities.Comment: 14 page

    Uniqueness for the electrostatic inverse boundary value problem with piecewise constant anisotropic conductivities

    Full text link
    We discuss the inverse problem of determining the, possibly anisotropic, conductivity of a body Ω⊂Rn\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^{n} when the so-called Neumann-to-Dirichlet map is locally given on a non empty curved portion Σ\Sigma of the boundary ∂Ω\partial\Omega. We prove that anisotropic conductivities that are \textit{a-priori} known to be piecewise constant matrices on a given partition of Ω\Omega with curved interfaces can be uniquely determined in the interior from the knowledge of the local Neumann-to-Dirichlet map

    Lipschitz stability for the electrostatic inverse boundary value problem with piecewise linear conductivities

    Get PDF
    We consider the electrostatic inverse boundary value problem also known as electrical impedance tomography (EIT) for the case where the conductivity is a piecewise linear function on a domain Ω⊂Rn\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n and we show that a Lipschitz stability estimate for the conductivity in terms of the local Dirichlet-to-Neumann map holds true.Comment: 28 pages. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1405.047

    Lipschitz stability for the electrical impedance tomography problem: the complex case

    Full text link
    In this paper we investigate the boundary value problem {div(\gamma\nabla u)=0 in \Omega, u=f on \partial\Omega where γ\gamma is a complex valued L∞L^\infty coefficient, satisfying a strong ellipticity condition. In Electrical Impedance Tomography, γ\gamma represents the admittance of a conducting body. An interesting issue is the one of determining γ\gamma uniquely and in a stable way from the knowledge of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map Λγ\Lambda_\gamma. Under the above general assumptions this problem is an open issue. In this paper we prove that, if we assume a priori that γ\gamma is piecewise constant with a bounded known number of unknown values, then Lipschitz continuity of γ\gamma from Λγ\Lambda_\gamma holds
