Abstract:
In the paper, we study the inverse problem of finding the solution
$u$ and the coefficient
$q$ from the following data:
\begin{gather*}
Mu=u_t-L(x,t,D_x)u+g(x,t,u,\nabla u)+q(x,t)u(x,t)=f(x,t),
\\
(x,t)\in Q=G\times(0,T),
\\
u|_{S}=\varphi(x,t),\quad
\frac{\partial u}{\partial n}\biggr|_{S}=\psi(x,t),\quad
u|_{t=0}=u_0(x),\quad
S=\Gamma\times(0,T),
\end{gather*}
where
$G\subset\mathbb R^n$ is a bounded domain with boundary
$\Gamma$ and
$L$ is a second-order elliptic operator. We prove that the problem is solvable locally in time or in the case where the norms of its data are sufficiently small.
