Abstract

This workshop addressed specific inverse problems for the time-harmonic Maxwell’s equations, resp. special cases of these, such as the Helmholtz equation or quasistatic approximations like in impedance tomography. The inverse problems considered include the reconstruction of obstacles and/or their material properties in a known background, given various kinds of data, such as near or far field measurements in the scattering context and boundary measurements in the quasistatic case.
