We prove a uniqueness result for the broken ray transform acting on the sums of functions and $1$-forms on surfaces in the presence of an external force and a reflecting obstacle. We assume that the considered twisted geodesic flows have…
This PhD thesis studies the broken ray transform, a generalization of the geodesic X-ray transform where geodesics are replaced with broken rays that reflect on a part of the boundary. The fundamental question is whether this transform is…
Consider a compact Riemannian manifold in dimension $n\geq 3$ with strictly convex boundary. We show that the transverse ray transform of $1$ tensors and the mixed ray transform of $1+1$ tensors are invertible, up to natural obstructions,…
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 reduce boundary determination of an unknown function and its normal derivatives from the (possibly weighted and attenuated) broken ray data to the injectivity of certain geodesic ray transforms on the boundary. For determination of the…
The geodesic ray transform, the mixed ray transform and the transverse ray transform of a tensor field on a manifold can all be seen as what we call mixing ray transforms, compositions of the geodesic ray transform and an invertible linear…
Consider a Riemannian manifold in dimension $n\geq 3$ with strictly convex boundary. We prove the local invertibility, up to potential fields, of the geodesic ray transform on tensor fields of rank four near a boundary point. This problem…

Given a bounded $C^1$ domain $\Omega\subset\R^n$ and a nonempty subset $E$ of its boundary (set of tomography), we consider broken rays which start and end at points of $E$. We ask: If the integrals of a function over all such broken rays…
This paper is concerned with analysis of electromagnetic wave scattering by an obstacle which is embedded in a two-layered lossy medium separated by an unbounded rough surface. Given a dipole point source, the direct problem is to determine…
We study the broken ray transform on $n$-dimensional Euclidean domains where the reflecting parts of the boundary are flat and establish injectivity and stability under certain conditions. Given a subset $E$ of the boundary $\partial…
We consider the inverse problem of the broken ray transform (sometimes also referred to as the V-line transform). Explicit image reconstruction formulas are derived and tested numerically. The obtained formulas are generalizations of the…
This PhD dissertation is concerned with integral geometric inverse problems. The geodesic ray transform is an operator that encodes the line integrals of a function along geodesics. The dissertation establishes many conditions when such…
We study numerical methods of tomography in domains with a reflecting obstacle. It will be shown that tomography with sets containing both broken rays, i.e. rays reflecting at the obstacle, as well as unbroken rays, has a smaller error…
We consider Calderon's inverse problem with partial data in dimensions $n \geq 3$. If the inaccessible part of the boundary satisfies a (conformal) flatness condition in one direction, we show that this problem reduces to the invertibility…
We present a numerical implementation of the geodesic ray transform and its inversion over functions and solenoidal vector fields on two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. For each problem, inversion formulas previously derived in…
We derive explicit reconstruction formulas for the attenuated geodesic X-ray transform over functions and, in the case of non-vanishing attenuation, vector fields, on a class of simple Riemannian surfaces with boundary. These formulas…
It is proved that one can choose a control function on an arbitrary small open subset of the boundary of an obstacle so that the total radiation from this obstacle for a fixed direction of the incident plane wave and for a fixed wave number…
