Abstract
We analyze an inverse problem associated with the time-harmonic Rayleigh system on a flat elastic half-space concerning the recovery of Lam\'{e} parameters in a slab beneath a traction-free surface. We employ the Markushevich substitution, while the data are captured in a Jost function, and point out parallels with a corresponding problem for the Schr\"{o}dinger equation. The Jost function can be identified with spectral data. We derive a Gel'fand-Levitan type equation and obtain uniqueness with two distinct frequencies.
