Invertibility of local geodesic transverse and mixed ray transforms I: basic cases

Differential Geometry 2024-01-18 v1

Abstract

Consider a compact Riemannian manifold in dimension n3n\geq 3 with strictly convex boundary. We show that the transverse ray transform of 11 tensors and the mixed ray transform of 1+11+1 tensors are invertible, up to natural obstructions, near a boundary point. When the manifold admits a strictly convex function, this local invertibility result leads to a global result by a layer stripping argument.
