TLDR
In this paper, the problem of determining the scalar coefficient γ in the elliptic equation div(γ grad u) = 0 in ω when, for every Dirichlet datum u = ∅ on ∂ω, the Neumann datum γ(∂/ ∂ n)u = ∧.γ∅ is known.
Abstract
We consider the problem of determining the scalar coefficient γ in the elliptic equation div(γ grad u) = 0 in ω when, for every Dirichlet datum u = ∅ on ∂ω , the Neumann datum γ(∂/ ∂ n)u = ∧.γ∅ is known. We prove a continuous dependence result
