We present a technique for recovering a vector field and a symmetric $2$-tensor field, both real-valued and compactly supported in some strictly convex bounded domain with smooth boundary in the Euclidean plane, from the sum of their…

We reduce the broken ray transform on some Riemannian manifolds (with corners) to the geodesic ray transform on another manifold, which is obtained from the original one by reflection. We give examples of this idea and present injectivity…

We study the microlocal inversion of the ray transform on symmetric $m$-tensor fields restricted to all lines passing through a curve in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. From this incomplete data, we show that the wavefront set of the solenoidal component…

The tomographic transform was first introduced in the field theory literature long ago. It is closely related to Radon transform. In this paper we show how the tomographic transform can be implemented on a sphere and apply this result to…

In this article, we study Momentum Light Ray Transform (MLRT) on symmetric tensor fields. MLRT is an integral transform in time-space domain ($(t,x)\in \mathbb{R}^{1+n}$), which integrates a scalar function or a tensor field along the light…

In this article, we study various aspects of the mixed ray transform of $(k + \ell)$-tensor fields that are symmetric in its first $k$ and last $\ell$ indices. As a first result, we derive an inversion algorithm to recover the solenoidal…

We study the geodesic X-ray transform $I_\Gamma$ of tensor fields on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ with non-necessarily convex boundary and with possible conjugate points. We assume that $I_\Gamma$ is known for geodesics belonging to an…

We consider the Radon transform along lines in an $n$ dimensional vector space over the two element field. It is well known that this transform is injective and highly overdetermined. We classify the minimal collections of lines for which…

The X-ray transform on a compact symmetric space M is here inverted by means of an explicit inversion formula. The proof uses the conjugacy of the minimal closed geodesics in M and of the maximally curved totally geodesic spheres in M,…
