We present two range characterizations for the attenuated geodesic X-ray transform defined on pairs of functions and one-forms on simple surfaces. Such characterizations are based on first isolating the range over sums of functions and…

We complete the microlocal study of the geodesic X-ray transform on Riemannian manifolds with Anosov geodesic flow initiated by Guillarmou and pursued by Guillarmou and the second author. We prove new stability estimates and clarify some…

We determine the complete conjugate locus along all geodesics parallel or perpendicular to the center (Theorem 2.3). When the center is 1-dimensional we obtain formulas in all cases (Theorem 2.5), and when a certain operator is also…

Guillarmou's normal operator over a closed Anosov manifold is analogous to the classical normal operator of the geodesic X-ray transform over manifolds with boundary. In this paper, we generalize this normal operator, under some dynamical…

This article deals with stability issues related to geodesic X-ray transforms, where an interplay between the (attenuation type) weight in the transform and the underlying geometry strongly impact whether the problem is stable or unstable.…

We show that the normal operator of the X-ray transform in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 2$, has a unique continuation property in the class of compactly supported distributions. This immediately implies uniqueness for the X-ray tomography problem…

In this work we produce microlocal normal forms for pseudodifferential operators which have a Lagrangian submanifold of radial points. This answers natural questions about such operators and their associated classical dynamics. In a sequel,…

In this paper we consider the local X-ray transform for general flows. We extend the results on the local and global invertibility of the geodesic ray transform proved by Uhlmann and Vasy \cite{UV} to the X-ray transform for a general flow.…
