报告摘要：Harmonic functions describe equilibrium states in physical systems such as heat and fluid flow, electricity and gravitation. Similar objects appear in geometry as solutions of the Laplace-Beltrami, eigenfunction or Schrödinger equations on a Riemannian manifold. Various diffuse imaging methods can be modelled by the Laplace equation and its variants. This gives rise to inverse problems where the properties of an unknown medium are reconstructed from boundary measurements of solutions. A prototypical problem of this type is the inverse conductivity problem, also known as the Calderón problem, arising in electrical and seismic imaging.
This talk will give an overview of how certain harmonic functions and their counterparts have been used in the solution of inverse problems. We will describe the currently known results with an emphasis on the geometric case. We will also state several open questions.
