Title: Inverse Methods in Action
Description: The basic idea of inverse methods is to extract from the evaluation of measured signals the details of the object emitting them. The applications range from physics and engineering to geology and medicine (tomography). Although most contributions are rather theoretical in nature, this volume is of practical value to experimentalists and engineers and as well of interest to mathematicians. The review lectures and contributed papers are grouped into eight chapters dedicated to tomograpy, distributed parameter inverse problems, spectral and scattering inverse problems (exact theory), wave propagation and scattering (approximations); miscellaneous inverse problems and applications and inverse methods in nonlinear mathematics.
