Inverse Conductivity Problem for a Parabolic Equation using a Carleman Estimate with One Observation
نویسنده
چکیده
For the heat equation in a bounded domain we give a stability result for a smooth diffusion coefficient. The key ingredients are a global Carleman-type estimate, a Poincaré-type estimate and an energy estimate with a single observation acting on a part of the boundary.

Carleman Estimate for Stochastic Parabolic Equations and Inverse Stochastic Parabolic Problems
In this paper, we establish a global Carleman estimate for stochastic parabolic equations. Based on this estimate, we solve two inverse problems for stochastic parabolic equations. One is concerned with a determination problem of the history of a stochastic heat process through the observation at the final time T , for which we obtain a conditional stability estimate. The other is an inverse so...
متن کاملA note on uniqueness in the identification of a spacewise dependent source and diffusion coefficient for the heat equation
We investigate uniqueness in the inverse problem of reconstructing simultaneously a spacewise conductivity function and a heat source in the parabolic heat equation from the usual conditions of the direct problem and additional information from a supplementary temperature measurement at a given single instant of time. In the multi-dimensional case, we use Carleman estimates for parabolic equati...
متن کاملInverse Problem for a Coupled Parabolic System with Discontinuous Conductivities: One-dimensional Case
We study the inverse problem of the simultaneous identification of two discontinuous diffusion coefficients for a one-dimensional coupled parabolic system with the observation of only one component. The stability result for the diffusion coefficients is obtained by a Carleman-type estimate. Results from numerical experiments in the one-dimensional case are reported, suggesting that the method m...
متن کاملInverse problem for a parabolic system with two components by measurements of one component
We consider a 2×2 system of parabolic equations with first and zeroth coupling and establish a Carleman estimate by extra data of only one component without data of initial values. Then we apply the Carleman estimate to inverse problems of determining some or all of the coefficients by observations in an arbitrary subdomain over a time interval of only one component and data of two components a...
متن کاملParameter determination in a parabolic inverse problem in general dimensions
It is well known that the parabolic partial differential equations in two or more space dimensions with overspecified boundary data, feature in the mathematical modeling of many phenomena. In this article, an inverse problem of determining an unknown time-dependent source term of a parabolic equation in general dimensions is considered. Employing some transformations, we change the inverse prob...
