We consider a mathematical model of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) with a known, possibly non-flat, topography. In this context we consider the problem of recovering the wavefront set of the ground reflectivity, given radar data measured…
We study the integral transform over a general family of broken rays in $\mathbb{R}^2$. It is natural for broken rays to have conjugate points, for example, when they are reflected from a curved boundary. If there are conjugate points, we…
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…
This thesis is concerned with problems related to Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR). The thesis is structured as follows: The first chapter explains what SAR is, and the physical and mathematical background is illuminated. The following…
A number of practically important imaging problems involve inverting the generalized Radon transform (GRT) $\mathcal R$ of a function $f$ in $\mathbb R^3$. On the other hand, not much is known about the spatial resolution of the…

We consider curves $\gamma : [0, 1]\to\mathbb{R}^3$ endowed with an adapted orthonormal frame $r : [0, 1]\to SO(3)$. We are interested in the cases where the frame is constrained, in the sense that one of its `curvatures' (i.e.,…
We exhibit a polynomial time computable plane curve GAMMA that has finite length, does not intersect itself, and is smooth except at one endpoint, but has the following property. For every computable parametrization f of GAMMA and every…
Hyperplane is a set of non-injectivity of the spherical Radon transform (SRT) in the space of continuous functions in R^d. In this article, for the reconstruction of an unknown function f from C(R^3) (the support can be non-compact), using…
We study the problem of recovery both the attenuation $a$ and the source $f$ in the attenuated X-ray transform in the plane. We study the linearization as well. It turns out that there are natural Hamiltonian flow that determines which…
It is studied the following problem: for a given function $f$ what kind of may be a set of all rotations $\gamma$ for which $\int f$ is not differentiable with respect to $\gamma$-rotation of a given basis $B$? In particular, for…
This article is written to serve as an introduction and survey of imaging with synthetic aperture radar (SAR). The reader will benefit from having some familiarity with harmonic analysis, electromagnetic radiation, and inverse problems.…
A family of plane oriented continuous paths depending on a fixed real positive number $R$ is considered. For any point $x$ on the path, the previous points lie out of any circle of radius $R$ having at $x$ interior normal in a suitable…
We study the X-ray transform over a generic family of smooth curves in $\mathbb{R}^2$ with a Riemannian metric $g$. We show that the singularities cannot be recovered from local data in the presence of conjugate points, and therefore…
In this paper we consider the generalized Radon transform $\mathcal R$ in the plane. Let $f$ be a piecewise smooth function, which has a jump across a smooth curve $\mathcal S$. We obtain a formula, which accurately describes view aliasing…
We provide criteria for deciding whether a given planar curve is an image of a given spatial curve, obtained by a central or a parallel projection with unknown parameters. These criteria reduce the projection problem to a certain…
Phase unwrapping is a key problem in many coherent imaging systems, such as synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry. A general formulation for redundant integration of finite differences for phase unwrapping (Costantini et al., 2010)…
Aircraft models may be considered as flat if one neglects some terms associated to aerodynamics. Computational experiments in Maple show that in some cases a suitably designed feed-back allows to follow such trajectories, when applied to…
Atmospheric tomography, the problem of reconstructing atmospheric turbulence profiles from wavefront sensor measurements, is an integral part of many adaptive optics systems. It is used to enhance the image quality of ground-based…
While galaxy rotation curves provide one of the most powerful methods for measuring dark matter profiles in the inner regions of rotation-supported galaxies, at the dwarf scale there are factors that can complicate this analysis. Given the…
