A uniqueness result for the inverse problem of identifying boundaries from weighted Radon transform

Abstract

Abstract We study the problem of the integral geometry, in which the functions are integrated over hyperplanes in the n -dimensional Euclidean space, n = 2 ⁢ m + 1 {n=2m+1} . The integrand is the product of a function of n variables called the density and weight function depending on 2 ⁢ n {2n} variables. Such an integration is called here the weighted Radon transform, which coincides with the classical one if the weight function is equal to one. It is proved the uniqueness for the problem of determination of the surface on which the integrand is discontinuous.
