Inversion of spherically symmetric potentials from boundary data for the wave equation
Suppose \(q(y)\) is a spherically symmetric potential which is zero outside \(B\), the ball of radius \(R\) in \(\mathbb{R}^3\). Suppose \[ V_{tt}-\Delta_yV+ g(y)V= \delta(y,t),\quad y\in\mathbb{R}^3,\;t\in\mathbb{R},\quad V=0,\quad t<0. \] The author shows how \(q(y)\) may be reconstructed from the values of \(V(y, t)\) on \([R,3R]\) by reducing it to a problem of inversion from transmission data for a one-dimensional wave equation. From experience with similar one-dimensional problems one knows that for successful inversion, \(V(y, t)\) must be known for \(t\) in an interval at least twice as large as the radius of the support of \(q(y)\). In the above-mentioned inverse problem the data and the object to be reconstructed depend on the same number of parameters.
