Non-standard Sobolev scales and the mapping properties of the X-ray transform on manifolds with strictly convex boundary

Abstract

This article surveys recent results aiming at obtaining refined mapping estimates for the X-ray transform on a Riemannian manifold with boundary, which leverage the condition that the boundary be strictly geodesically convex. These questions are motivated by classical inverse problems questions (e.g. range characterization, stability estimates, mapping properties on Hilbert scales), and more recently by uncertainty quantification and operator learning questions.Comment: 42 page
