On global uniqueness for an IBVP for the time-harmonic Maxwell equations

In this paper we prove uniqueness for an inverse boundary value problem (IBVP) arising in electrodynamics. We assume that the electromagnetic properties of the medium, namely the magnetic permeability, the electric permittivity and the conductivity, are described by continuously differentiable functions

Inverse scattering for a random potential

In this paper we consider an inverse problem for the $n$-dimensional random Schr\"{o}dinger equation $(\Delta-q+k^2)u = 0$. We study the scattering of plane waves in the presence of a potential $q$ which is assumed to be a Gaussian random function such that its covariance is described by a pseudodifferential operator. Our main result is as follows: given the backscattered far field, obtained from a single realization of the random potential $q$, we uniquely determine the principal symbol of the covariance operator of $q$. Especially, for $n=3$ this result is obtained for the full non-linear inverse backscattering problem. Finally, we present a physical scaling regime where the method is of practical importance.Comment: Previous version 48 pages; Current version 51 pages, 3 figures, several references have been adde
