Monotonicity Principle in Tomography of Nonlinear Conducting Materials
TLDR
In this article, the authors show that the Monotonicity principle for the Dirichlet Energy in nonlinear problems holds under mild assumptions, and they show that apart from linear and $p$-Laplacian cases, it is impossible to transfer this monotonicity result from the DirICHlet Energy to the DtN operator.Abstract:
We treat an inverse electrical conductivity problem which deals with the reconstruction of nonlinear electrical conductivity starting from boundary measurements in steady currents operations. In this framework, a key role is played by the Monotonicity Principle, which establishes a monotonic relation connecting the unknown material property to the (measured) Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator (DtN). Monotonicity Principles are the foundation for a class of non-iterative and real-time imaging methods and algorithms. In this article, we prove that the Monotonicity Principle for the Dirichlet Energy in nonlinear problems holds under mild assumptions. Then, we show that apart from linear and $p$-Laplacian cases, it is impossible to transfer this Monotonicity result from the Dirichlet Energy to the DtN operator. To overcome this issue, we introduce a new boundary operator, identified as an Average DtN operator.read more

A simple method for solving inverse scattering problems in the resonance region
TL;DR: In this paper, an inversion scheme for two-dimensional inverse scattering problems in the resonance region is proposed, which does not use nonlinear optimization methods and is relatively independent of the geometry and physical properties of the scatterer, assuming that the far field pattern corresponding to observation angle and plane waves incident at angle is known for all.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors derived a factorization of the far field operator F in the form and proved that the ranges of and G coincide, and gave an explicit characterization of the scattering obstacle which uses only the spectral data of F. This result is used to prove a convergence result for a recent numerical method proposed by Colton, Kirsch, Monk, Piana and Potthast.
