Travel time tomography (Q2311731): Difference between revisions

This paper is a survey of some results on travel time tomography. If the anisotropic index of refraction of a medium can be determined by measuring the travel times of waves going through the medium can be recast as geometry problems whose linearization versions lead to tensor tomography. The question is whether one can determine a symmetric two-tensor from its integrals along geodesics. Recent results on boundary and lens rigidity and in tensor tomography in the partial data case have been emphasized in this paper, with further applications.
