Abstract: This paper concerns the reconstruction of a scalar diffusion coefficient sigma(x) from redundant functionals of the form Hi(x)=sigma2alpha(x)|ablaui|2(x) where alphainRm and ui is a solution of the elliptic problem ablacdotsigmaablaui=0 for 1leqileqI. The case alpha=frac12 is used to model measurements obtained from modulating a domain of interest by ultrasound and finds applications in ultrasound modulated electrical impedance tomography (UMEIT) as well as ultrasound modulated optical tomography (UMOT). The case alpha=1 finds applications in Magnetic Resonance Electrical Impedance Tomography (MREIT). We present two explicit reconstruction procedures of sigma for appropriate choices of I and of traces of ui at the boundary of a domain of interest. The first procedure involves the solution of an over-determined system of ordinary differential equations and generalizes to the multi-dimensional case and to (almost) arbitrary values of alpha the results obtained in two and three dimensions in cite{CFGK} and cite{BBMT}, respectively, in the case alpha=frac12. The second procedure consists of solving a system of linear elliptic equations, which we can prove admits a unique solution in specific situations.
