Introduction to inverse problems for hyperbolic PDEs

Abstract

There are two main approaches to solve inverse coefficient determination problems for wave equations: the Boundary Control method and an approach based on geometric optics. These notes focus on the Boundary Control method, but we will have a brief look at the geometric optics as well.
