Subspaces of Stability in the Cauchy Problem for the Helmholtz Equation∗

چکیده
We study the stability in the Cauchy Problem for the Helmholtz equation in dependence of the wave number k. For simple geometries, we show analytically that this problem is getting more stable with increasing k. In more detail, there is a subspace of the data space on which the Cauchy Problem is well posed, and this subspace grows with larger k. We call this a subspace of stability. For more general geometries, we study the ill-posedness by computing the singular values of some operators associated with corresponding well-posed (direct) boundary value problems. Numerical computations of the singular values show that an increasing subspace of stability exists for more general domains and boundary data when there are trapped rays of geometrical optics. Assuming the existence of such subspaces we develop a theory of (Tikhonov type) regularization for the Cauchy Problem, giving convergence rates and regularization parameter choice which improve with growing k.

Increased stability in the Cauchy problem for some elliptic equations
We derive some bounds which can be viewed as an evidence of increasing stability in the Cauchy Problem for the Helmholtz equation with lower order terms when frequency is growing. These bounds hold under certain (pseudo)convexity properties of the surface where the Cauchy data are given and of variable zero order coefficient of the Helmholtz equation. Proofs use Carleman estimates, the theory o...

In this paper we give analytical evidence of increasing stability in the Cauchy Problem for the Helmholtz equation when frequency is growing.
