Abstract

This paper presents an inverse problem for the nonlinear 1-d Kuramoto-Sivashinsky (K-S) equation. More precisely, we study the nonlinear inverse problem of retrieving the anti-diffusion coefficient from the measurements of the solution on a part of the boundary and at some positive time everywhere. Uniqueness and Lipschitz stability for this inverse problem are proven with the Bukhgeim-Klibanov method. The proof is based on a global Carleman estimate for the linearized K-S equation.
