Abstract: We study inverse problems for the Poisson equation with source term the divergence of an

m a t h b f R^{3}

-valued measure, that is, the potential

P h i

satisfies

Delta Phi= ext{div} �oldsymbol{mu},

and

is to be reconstructed knowing (a component of) the field grad

P h i

on a set disjoint from the support of

. Such problems arise in several electro-magnetic contexts in the quasi-static regime, for instance when recovering a remanent magnetization from measurements of its magnetic field. We develop methods for recovering

based on total variation regularization. We provide sufficient conditions for the unique recovery of

, asymptotically when the regularization parameter and the noise tend to zero in a combined fashion, when it is uni-directional or when the magnetization has a support which is sparse in the sense that it is purely 1-unrectifiable. Numerical examples are provided to illustrate the main theoretical results.
