An inverse boundary value problem arising in nonlinear acoustics

Abstract

We consider an inverse problem arising in nonlinear ultrasound imaging. The propagation of ultrasound waves is modeled by a quasilinear wave equation. We make measurements at the boundary of the medium encoded in the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map, and we show that these measurements determine the nonlinearity.
