Abstract

For a compact Riemannian manifold (M,g)(M,g) with boundary M\partial M, the Diri\-chl\-et-to-Neumann operator Λg:C(M)C(M)\Lambda_g:C^\infty(\partial M)\longrightarrow C^\infty(\partial M) is defined by Λgf=uνM\Lambda_gf=\left.\frac{\partial u}{\partial\nu}\right|_{\partial M}, where ν\nu is the unit outer normal vector to the boundary and uu is the solution to the Dirichlet problem Δgu=0, uM=f\Delta_gu=0,\ u|_{\partial M}=f. Let gg_\partial be the Riemannian metric on M\partial M induced by gg. The Calderon problem is posed as follows: To what extent is (M,g)(M,g) determined by the data (M,g,Λg)(\partial M,g_\partial,\Lambda_g)? We prove the uniqueness theorem: A compact connected two-dimensional Riemannian manifold (M,g)(M,g) with non-empty boundary is determined by the data (M,g,Λg)(\partial M,g_\partial,\Lambda_g) uniquely up to conformal equivalence.
