Increasing stability in the inverse source problem with many frequencies (Q2634284): Difference between revisions

The paper studies increasing stability in the interior inverse source problem for Helmholtz equation from boundary Cauchy data for multiple wave numbers. One important example is the recovery of acoustic sources from boundary measurements of the pressure. This type of inverse source problem is also motivated by applications in antenna synthesis, biomedical imaging and various kinds of tomography. By using the Fourier transform with respect to the wave number, explicit bounds for analytic continuation, uniqueness of the continuation results and the exact observability bounds for the wave equation are obtained. A sharp uniqueness result and an increasing (with large wave numbers intervals) stability estimates are proved. Numerical examples in 3 spacial dimension support theoretical results.
