It is proved that the scattering amplitude $A(\beta, \alpha_0, k_0)$, known for all $\beta\in S^2$, where $S^2$ is the unit sphere in $\mathbb{R}^3$, and fixed $\alpha_0\in S^2$ and $k_0>0$, determines uniquely the surface $S$ of the…

We consider a twisted quantum waveguide i.e. a domain of the form \Omega_{\theta} : = r_\theta \omega \times R, where \omega \subset R^2 is a bounded domain, and r_\theta = r_\theta(x_3) is a rotation by the angle \theta(x_3) depending on…
