Abstract

We consider an inverse problem for electrically conductive material occupying a domain Ω\Omega in R2\Bbb R^2. Let γ\gamma be the conductivity of Ω\Omega, and DD a subdomain of Ω\Omega. We assume that γ\gamma is a positive constant kk on DD, k1k\not=1 and is 11 on ΩD\Omega\setminus D; both DD and kk are unknown. The problem is to find a reconstruction formula of DD from the Cauchy data on Ω\partial\Omega of a non-constant solution uu of the equation γu=0\nabla\cdot\gamma\nabla u=0 in Ω\Omega. We prove that if DD is known to be a convex polygon such that diamD<dist(D,Ω)\text{diam}\,D<\text{dist}\,(D,\partial\Omega), there are two formulae for calculating the support function of DD from the Cauchy data.
