The Calder\'on problem with partial data

Analysis of PDEs 2007-05-23 v3

Abstract

In this paper we improve an earlier result by Bukhgeim and Uhlmann, by showing that in dimension larger than or equal to three, the knowledge of the Cauchy data for the Schr\"odinger equation measured on possibly very small subsets of the boundary determines uniquely the potential. We follow the general strategy of Bukhgeim and Uhlmann but use a richer set of solutions to the Dirichlet problem.
