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,…

We introduce a technique for recovering a sufficiently smooth function from its ray transform over a wide class of curves in a general region of Euclidean space. The method is based on a complexification of the underlying vector fields…
