Abstract

We study the problem of unique recovery of a non-smooth one-form A\mathcal A and a scalar function qq from the Dirichlet to Neumann map, ΛA,q\Lambda_{\mathcal A,q}, of a hyperbolic equation on a Riemannian manifold (M,g)(M,g). We prove uniqueness of the one-form A\mathcal A up to the natural gauge, under weak regularity conditions on A,q\mathcal A,q and under the assumption that (M,g)(M,g) is simple. Under an additional regularity assumption, we also derive uniqueness of the scalar function qq. The proof is based on the geometric optic construction and inversion of the light ray transform extended as a Fourier Integral Operator to non-smooth parameters and functions.
