Abstract

For smooth compact connected manifolds with strictly convex boundary, no conjugate points and a hyperbolic trapped set, we prove an equivalence principle concerning the injectivity of the X-ray transform ImI_m on symmetric solenoidal tensors and the surjectivity of an operator πm{\pi_m}_* on the set of solenoidal tensors. This allows us to establish the injectivity of the X-ray transform on solenoidal tensors of any order in the case of a surface satisfying these assumptions.

24 pages, 2 figures. Theorem 1.2 improved thanks to a referee's suggestion: the condition "I^e_m is s-injective" is relaxed to "I_m is s-injective"
