Abstract

Let (M,g)(M,g) be a smooth compact orientable two-dimensional Riemannian manifold ({\it surface}) with a smooth metric tensor gg and smooth connected boundary Γ\Gamma. Its {\it DN-map} Λg:C(Γ)C(Γ)\Lambda_g:{C^\infty}(\Gamma)\to{C^\infty}(\Gamma) is associated with the (forward) elliptic problem Δgu=0inMΓ,u=fonΓ \Delta_gu=0 \,\,\, {\rm in}\,\,M\setminus\Gamma,\,\,u=f \,\,\, {\rm on}\,\,\,\Gamma, and acts by Λgf:=νufonΓ, \Lambda_g f:=\partial_\nu u^f \,\,\, {\rm on}\,\,\,\Gamma, where Δg\Delta_g is the Beltrami-Laplace operator, u=uf(x)u=u^f(x) is the solution, ν\nu is the outward normal to Γ\Gamma. The corresponding {\it inverse problem} is to determine the surface (M,g)(M,g) from its DN-map Λg\Lambda_g. We provide the necessary and sufficient conditions on an operator acting in C(Γ){C^\infty}(\Gamma) to be the DN-map of a surface. In contrast to the known conditions by G.Henkin and V.Michel in terms of multidimensional complex analysis, our ones are based on the connections of the inverse problem with commutative Banach algebras.
