Abstract: This work deals with the problem of determining a non-homogeneous heat conductivity profile in a steady-state heat conduction boundary-value problem with mixed Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions over a bounded domain in $mathbb{R}^n$, from the knowledge of the state over the whole domain. We develop a method based on a variational approach leading to an optimality equation which is then projected into a finite dimensional space. Discretization yields a linear although severely ill-posed equation which is then regularized via appropriate ad-hoc penalizers resulting a in a generalized Tikhonov-Phillips functional. No smoothness assumptions are imposed on the conductivity. Numerical examples for the case in which the conductivity can take only two prescribed values (a two-materials case) show that the approach is able to produce very good reconstructions of the exact solution.
