A Moment--Hankel Rank Method for Identifying the Number of Point Sources in the Heat Equation
Zhiliang Deng, Xiaomei Yang, Ailin Qian
We develop a low-frequency moment--Hankel rank method for identifying the number of time-independent point sources in the heat equation from boundary flux data. The method is formu…

A Hankel determinant zero-order principle for source counting in an inverse heat point-source problem
Zhiliang Deng, Ailin Qian, Xiaomei Yang
This paper studies the identification of an unknown number of stationary point sources in a two-dimensional heat equation from boundary flux measurements. Unlike many reconstructio…
