Abstract:
We study solvability of the inverse problems for finding both the solution $u(x,t)$ and the coefficient $q(x)$ in the equation $$
(-1)^{m+1}\frac{\partial^{2m+1}u}{\partial t^{2m+1}}+\Delta u+\mu u=f(x,t)+q(x)h(x,t),
$$
where $x=(x_1,\dots, x_n)\in\Omega,$$\Omega$ is a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n,$$t\in(0,T),$$0<T<+\infty,$$f(x,t)$ and $h(x, t)$ are given functions, $\mu$ is a given real, $m$ is a given natural, and $\Delta$ is necessary due to presence of the additional unknown function $q(x)$), the boundary overdetermination condition is used in the article (with $t=0$ or $t=T$).
For the problems under study, the existence and uniqueness theorems for regular solutions are proved (all derivatives are the Sobolev generalized derivatives).
