A conditional stability theorem in the problem of determining the dispersion index and relaxation for the stationary transport equation
The article under review is devoted to determining the relaxation coefficient \( \sigma (x) \) and the dispersion index \( K (x, \nu \cdot \nu') \) in the transport equation \[ \text{grad} \cdot \nu + \int\nolimits_{S^2} K(x, \nu \cdot \nu') u (x, \nu') d \nu', \quad (x, \nu ) \in G \equiv D \times S^2, \] from the trace of its solution on the Cartesian product \( \partial_+ G \times S^2 \) and a special boundary condition on \( \partial_- G \). Here \( \partial_{\pm} G = \{(x, \nu ) \mid \nu \in S^2 ,\;x \in S^2 ,\;\pm 1 \cdot \nu \cdot x > 0 \} \), \( D \) is the unit ball in \( \mathbb{R}^3 \), \( S^2 = \partial D \). The author obtains a collection of various estimates for some special representations of solutions to this inverse problem and for their functionals and proves that, for sufficiently small \( \varepsilon >0\), this problem has at most one solution \( \sigma, K \) such that the \( C^1 \)-norms of these functions do not exceed \( \varepsilon \). Similar inverse problems were considered in the author's previous publications [Sib. Math. J. 35, No.6, 1184-1201 (1994; Zbl 0861.35142), Sib. Math. J. 37, No.2, 308-324 (1996)].
