An inverse boundary-value problem for semilinear elliptic equations

We show that in dimension two or greater, a certain equivalence class of the scalar coefficient $a(x,u)$ of the semilinear elliptic equation $Delta u,+a(x,u)=0$ is uniquely determined by the Dirichlet to Neumann map of the equation on a bounded domain with smooth boundary. We also show that the...

description We show that in dimension two or greater, a certain equivalence class of the scalar coefficient $a(x,u)$ of the semilinear elliptic equation $Delta u,+a(x,u)=0$ is uniquely determined by the Dirichlet to Neumann map of the equation on a bounded domain with smooth boundary. We also show that the coefficient $a(x,u)$ can be determined by the Dirichlet to Neumann map under some additional hypotheses.
