Review text

This chapter reviews the state of the art of the inverse scattering theory for time-harmonic waves. The reduction of the theory to the Helmholtz is performed. The existence and uniqueness are sketched or proved. New concepts such as the far field operator, the factorization method, sampling or simple methods are reviewed. Some numerical methods and results are presented. The chapter concludes by saying that there is still gap between the abstract convergence of these methods in Hilbert spaces and the applications to inverse scattering problems. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1018.00017].
