Abstract:
We consider the question of well-posedness of the inverse problems of determining the righthand side (a source function) of a special form of a parabolic system of equations. The overdetermination data are the values of a solution and its normal derivatives on a system of surfaces in a spatial domain. In particular, the cross-sections of the domain can be used as these surfaces. Sharp conditions are presented for the data of the problem to ensure well-posedness.
Keywords:parabolic system, inverse problem, initial-boundary value problem, well-posedness, unconditional solvability.
