It is known that this inverse problem is ill-posed. Nonetheless, we show that the ill-posedness decreases when we increase the frequency and the stability estimate changes from logarithmic type for low frequencies to a Lipschitz estimate for large frequencies.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-10-24T07:29:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "inverse problem", "acoustic equation", "increasing stability", "inverse boundary value problem", "stability estimate changes" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1110.5145N" } } }
