Inverse problems for quadratic derivative nonlinear wave equations

Abstract

For semilinear wave equations on Lorentzian manifolds with quadratic derivative non-linear terms, we study the inverse problem of determining the background Lorentzian metric. Under some conditions on the nonlinear term, we show that from the source-to-solution map, one can determine the Lorentzian metric up to diffeomorphisms.
