This work gives an expository account of certain applications of microlocal analysis in three geometric inverse problems. We will discuss the geodesic X-ray transform inverse problem, the Gelfand problem for the wave equation on a…
In this short paper we introduce a variant of the approach to inverting the X-ray transform that originated in the author's work with Uhlmann. The new method is based on semiclassical analysis and eliminates the need for using sufficiently…
Let $M$ be a Riemannian manifold, $\tau: G \times M \to M$ an isometric action on $M$ of an $n$-torus $G$ and $V: M \to \mathbb R$ a bounded $G$-invariant smooth function. By $G$-invariance the Schr\"odinger operator, $P=-\hbar^2…
The dynamics of an inviscid and incompressible fluid flow on a Riemannian manifold is governed by the Euler equations. In recent papers [5, 6, 7, 8] several unknown facets of the Euler flows have been discovered, including universality…

We study the microlocal properties of the geodesic X-ray transform $\mathcal{X}$ on a manifold with boundary allowing the presence of conjugate points. Assuming that there are no self-intersecting geodesics and all conjugate pairs are…

In this paper we formulate some conjectures about algebraic flows on Shimura varieties. In the first part of the paper we prove the `logarithmic Ax-Lindemann theorem'. We then prove a result concerning the topological closure of the images…
The inverse problem of X-tray transforms considers reconstructing functions from some data that are easier to measure, which is typically the integral of that function along geodesics. We prove that if the domain has a foliation structure,…

Let X be a smooth complex projective variety, and let Y in X be a smooth very ample hypersurface such that -K_Y is nef. Using the technique of relative Gromov-Witten invariants, we give a new short and geometric proof of (a version of) the…

We show that the geodesic ray transform is injective on scalar functions on spherically symmetric reversible Finsler manifolds where the Finsler norm satisfies a Herglotz condition. We use angular Fourier series to reduce the injectivity…
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…
