The Inverse Problem for a General Class of Multidimensional Hyperbolic Equations

Gani Aldashev and Serik A. Aldashev

Mathematical Problems in Engineering, 2012, vol. 2012, 1-11

Abstract:

Inverse problems for hyperbolic equations are found in geophysical prospecting and seismology, and their multidimensional analogues are especially important for applied work. However, whereas results have been established for the some narrow classes of hyperbolic equations, no results exist for more general classes. This paper proves the solvability of the inverse problem for a general class of multidimensional hyperbolic equations. Our approach consists of properly choosing the shape of the overidentifying condition that is needed to determine the right-hand side of the hyperbolic PDE and then applying the Fourier series method. We are then able to establish the results of the existence of solution for the cases when the unknown right-hand side is time- independent or space independent.
