Abstract: Let uta(t)uxx=f(x,t) in 0leqxleqpi,,,tgeq0. Assume that u(0,t)=u1(t), u(pi,t)=u2(t), u(x,0)=h(x), and the extra data ux(0,t)=g(t) are known. The inverse problem is: {it How does one determine the unknown a(t)?} The function a(t)>a0>0 is assumed continuous and bounded. This question is answered and a method for recovery of a(t) is proposed. There are several papers in which sufficient conditions are given for the uniqueness and existence of a(t), but apparently there was no method proposed for calculating of a. The method given in this paper for proving the uniqueness and existence of the solution to inverse problem is new and it allows one to calculate the unknown coefficient a(t).
