The Inverse Problem of Reconstructing Reaction-Diffusion Systems (2003.00489v1)
Published 1 Mar 2020 in math.NA and cs.NA
Abstract: This paper considers the inverse problem of recovering state-dependent source terms in a reaction-diffusion system from overposed data consisting of the values of the state variables either at a fixed finite time (census-type data) or a time trace of their values at a fixed point on the boundary of the spatial domain. We show both uniqueness results and the convergence of an iteration scheme designed to recover these sources. This leads to a reconstructive method and we shall demonstrate its effectiveness by several illustrative examples.
