An inverse anisotropic conductivity problem induced by twisting a homogeneous cylindrical domain (Q2515799)

Let \(\omega\) be a bounded domain in \(\mathbb{R}^2\), \(\Omega = \omega \times \mathbb{R}\). Denote by \(A = (A_{ij}(x)), x = (x',x_3) \in \Omega\) a matrix-valued metric on \(\Omega\). The authors consider the inverse problem of determining the unknown function \(\alpha: \mathbb{R} \to \mathbb{R}\) from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann (DN) map associated with the operator \(\text{div} (A(x',\alpha(x_3))\nabla \cdot)\) acting in \(\Omega\). They prove stability in determining the function \(\alpha\) from some suitable approximation of the DN map provided \(\alpha\) is sufficiently close to some arbitrary fixed constant. In the case of constant unknown functions, the authors prove Lipschitz stability in the determination of \(\alpha\) from the knowledge of the DN map.
