Real integral geometry and complex analysis

From MaRDI portal





In these three lectures I will talk about three variations of the Radon transform. We start with the projective Radon transform (Lecture 1). The projective view gives the possibility to see that the affine Radon transform and the Minkowski Funk transform on the sphere are projectively equivalent. We increase also our possibilities to write the Radon inversion formulas, transforming them in a projective invariant form. In Lecture 2 we consider the Radon John transform -- the generalization of the Radon transform when we integrate on planes of the codimension more than 1. We gain here an experience of how to work with overdeterminant problems of integral geometry (the dimension of the manifold of planes can be much higher than the dimension of the space). Finally in Lecture 3 we extend the Radon transform up to the conformal invariant object: the reconstruction of functions on the sphere through their integrals on plane sections. This problem is again overdeterminate. In the scope of this problem many problems of integral geometry are equivalent including the projective Radon transform and both hyperbolic Radon transforms -- geodesic and horospherical. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0889.00023].
