We consider the problem of determining a pair of functions $(u,f)$ satisfying the heat equation $u_t -\Delta u =\varphi(t)f (x,y)$, where $(x,y)\in \Omega=(0,1)\times (0,1)$ and the function $\varphi$ is given. The problem is ill-posed.…
In this paper, we consider an inverse problem to determine a source term in a parabolic equation, where the data are obtained at a certain time. In general, this problem is ill-posed, therefore the Tikhonov regularization method is proposed…
In this note we study the problem of sampling and reconstructing signals which are assumed to lie on or close to one of several subspaces of a Hilbert space. Importantly, we here consider a very general setting in which we allow infinitely…
In a smoothly bounded convex domain $\Omega\subset R^n$ with $n\ge 1$, a no-flux initial-boundary value problem for \[ \left\{ \begin{array}{l} u_t=\Delta \big(u\phi(v)\big), v_t=\Delta v-uv, \end{array} \right. \] is considered under the…

This paper is concerned with the inverse acoustic scattering problems of reconstructing time-dependent multiple point sources and sources on a curve $L$ of the form $\lambda(t)\tau(x)\delta_L(x)$. A direct sampling method with a novel…
We propose a method to recover the time variable and the classical evolution of the Universe from the minisuperspace wave function of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation. Defining a Hamilton-Jacobi characteristic function $W$ as the imaginary part…
In signal processing, several applications involve the recovery of a function given noisy modulo samples. The setting considered in this paper is that the samples corrupted by an additive Gaussian noise are wrapped due to the modulo…
When recording spectra from the ground, atmospheric turbulence causes degradation of the spatial resolution. We present a data reduction method that restores the spatial resolution of the spectra to their undegraded state. By assuming that…
We recover the higher order terms for the acoustic wave equation from measurements of the modulus of the solution. The recovery of these coefficients is reduced to a question of stability for inverting a Hamiltonian flow transform, not the…
Computing the rate-distortion function for continuous sources is commonly regarded as a standard continuous optimization problem. When numerically addressing this problem, a typical approach involves discretizing the source space and…
The problem of recovering coefficients in a diffusion equation is one of the basic inverse problems. Perhaps the most important term is the one that couples the length and time scales and is often referred to as {\it the\/} diffusion…
