In this article, the ray tracing method is studied beyond the classical geometrical theory. The trajectories are here regarded as geodesics in a Riemannian manifold, whose metric and topological properties are those induced by the…
In this paper we study the linearized inverse problem associated with imaging of reflection seismic data. We introduce an inverse scattering transform derived from reverse-time migration (RTM). In the process, the explicit evaluation of the…
We study the integral transform over a general family of broken rays in $\mathbb{R}^2$. It is natural for broken rays to have conjugate points, for example, when they are reflected from a curved boundary. If there are conjugate points, we…
Given a closed $k$-dimensional submanifold $K$, incapsulated in a compact domain $M \subset \mathbb E^n$, $k \leq n-2$, we consider the problem of determining the intrinsic geometry of the obstacle $K$ (like volume, integral curvature) from…
Focusing mirrors for X-ray telescopes in grazing incidence, introduced in the 70s, are characterized in terms of their performance by their imaging quality and effective area, which in turn determines their sensitivity. Even though the…
In this paper we consider the Gaussian thermostat ray transform on both closed Riemannian surfaces and compact Riemannian surfaces with boundary. We establish certain results on the injectivity of the thermostat ray transform and the…
We illustrate the general point of view developed in [SIAM J. Math. Anal., 51(6), 4356-4381] that can be described as a variation of Helgason's theory of dual $G$-homogeneous pairs $(X,\Xi)$ and which allows us to prove intertwining…
Electrical Impedance Tomography gives rise to the severely ill-posed Calder\'on problem of determining the electrical conductivity distribution in a bounded domain from knowledge of the associated Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for the governing…
We introduce a general approach to traces that we consider as linear continuous functionals on some function space where we focus on some special choices for that space. This leads to an integral calculus for the computation of the precise…
We prove that the geodesic X-ray transform is injective on scalar functions and (solenoidally) on one-forms on simple Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ with $g \in C^{1,1}$. In addition to a proof, we produce a redefinition of simplicity that is…
In this work, we study nonlocal differential equations with particular focus on those with reflection in their argument and piecewise constant dependence. The approach entails deriving the explicit expression of the solution to the linear…
We study a generalized boundary rigidity problem, which investigates whether the areas of embedded minimal surfaces can uniquely determine a Riemannian manifold with boundary. We prove that for a conformal perturbation of an analytic metric…
In this paper, we consider the inverse problem of determining an unknown function defined in three space dimensions from its geodesic X-ray transform. The standard X-ray transform is defined on the Euclidean metric and is given by the…
Conventional mirrors obey Snell's reflection law: a plane wave is reflected as a plane wave, at the same angle. To engineer spatial distributions of fields reflected from a mirror, one can either shape the reflector (for example, creating a…
The paper uses a frame-theoretic setting to study the injectivity of a ReLU-layer on the closed ball of $\mathbb{R}^n$ and its non-negative part. In particular, the interplay between the radius of the ball and the bias vector is emphasized.…
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,…
The propagation of a light ray in thin layer (film) within geometrical optics is considered. It is assumed that the ray is captured inside the layer due to reflecting walls or total internal reflection (in the case of a dielectric layer).…
The spectral-angular and angular distributions of parametric X-radiation for case of backward diffraction (particular case of Bragg geometry scheme) is discussed. It is shown that in case of Bragg geometry it is necessary to use dynamical…
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…
The Douglas-Rachford reflection method is a general purpose algorithm useful for solving the feasibility problem of finding a point in the intersection of finitely many sets. In this chapter we demonstrate that applied to a specific…
