Ill-posedness of time-dependent inverse problems in Lebesgue-Bochner spaces (2310.08600v1)

Abstract: We consider time-dependent inverse problems in a mathematical setting using Lebesgue-Bochner spaces. Such problems arise when one aims to recover parameters from given observations where the parameters or the data depend on time. There are various important applications being subject of current research that belong to this class of problems. Typically inverse problems are ill-posed in the sense that already small noise in the data causes tremendous errors in the solution. In this article we present two different concepts of ill-posedness: temporally (pointwise) ill-posedness and uniform ill-posedness with respect to the Lebesgue-Bochner setting. We investigate the two concepts by means of a typical setting consisting of a time-depending observation operator composed by a compact operator. Furthermore we develop regularization methods that are adapted to the respective class of ill-posedness.
