Microlocal inversion of a 3-dimensional restricted transverse ray transform of symmetric $m$-tensor fields (1904.02812v2)

Abstract: We study the problem of inverting a restricted transverse ray transform to recover a symmetric $m$-tensor field in $\mathbb{R}^3$ using microlocal analysis techniques. More precisely, we prove that a symmetric $m$-tensor field can be recovered up to a known singular term and a smoothing term if its transverse ray transform is known along all lines intersecting a fixed smooth curve satisfying the Kirillov-Tuy condition.
