Inverse problem by Cauchy data on arbitrary subboundary for system of elliptic equations
We consider an inverse problem of determining coefficient matrices in an
-system of second-order elliptic equations in a bounded two dimensional
domain by a set of Cauchy data on arbitrary subboundary. The main result of the
article is as follows: If two systems of elliptic operators generate the same
set of partial Cauchy data on an arbitrary subboundary, then the coefficient
matrices of the first-order and zero-order terms satisfy the prescribed system
of first-order partial differential equations. The main result implies the
uniqueness of any two coefficient matrices provided that the one remaining
matrix among the three coefficient matrices is known
Inverse parabolic problems by Carleman estimates with data taken initial or final time moment of observation
We consider a parabolic equation in a bounded domain \OOO over a time
interval with the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. We
arbitrarily choose a subboundary \Gamma \subset \ppp\OOO. Then, we discuss an
inverse problem of determining a zeroth-order spatially varying coefficient by
extra data of solution : and
in \OOO with or . First we establish a conditional Lipschitz
stability estimate as well as the uniqueness for the case Second,
under additional condition for , we prove the uniqueness for the case
. The second result adjusts the uniqueness by M.V. Klibanov (Inverse
Problems {\bf 8} (1992) 575-596) to the inverse problem in a bounded domain
\OOO. We modify his method which reduces the inverse parabolic problem to an
inverse hyperbolic problem, and so even for the inverse parabolic problem, we
have to assume conditions for the uniqueness for the corresponding inverse
hyperbolic problem. Moreover we prove the uniqueness for some inverse source
problem for a parabolic equation for without boundary condition on the
whole \ppp\OOO
