Scattering theory for PDEs (35P25) Inverse problems for PDEs (35R30)

Abstract: We study the inverse scattering problem of determining a magnetic field and electric potential from scattering measurements corresponding to finitely many plane waves. The main result shows that the coefficients are uniquely determined by $2n$ measurements up to a natural gauge. We also show that one can recover the full first order term for a related equation having no gauge invariance, and that it is possible to reduce the number of measurements if the coefficients have certain symmetries. This work extends the fixed angle scattering results of Rakesh and M. Salo to Hamiltonians with first order perturbations, and it is based on wave equation methods and Carleman estimates.

Review text

In this paper, the authors study the inverse scattering problem of determining a magnetic field and electric potential from scattering measurements corresponding to finitely many plane waves. They prove that the coefficients of the involved first-order differential operator, belonging to \(\mathcal{C}^m(\mathbb{R}^n)\), for \(m\in \mathbb{N}\), and having compact support in the unit ball of \(\mathbb{R}^n\), are uniquely determined by \(2n\) measurements up to a natural gauge. Besides, they show that the full first-order term can be recovered from a related equation having no gauge invariance, and that it is possible to reduce the number of measurements if the coefficients have certain symmetries. They note that this work is based on wave-equation methods and Carleman estimates and it extends the fixed angle scattering results of \textit{Rakesh} and the third author [SIAM J. Math. Anal. 52, No. 6, 5467--5499 (2020; Zbl 1453.35193); Inverse Probl. 36, No. 3, Article ID 035005, 42 p. (2020; Zbl 1439.35569)] to Hamiltonians with first-order perturbations.
