Abstract

The boundary control method (BC-method) is an approach to inverse problems based on their relations to control theory. Originally, it was proposed for solving multidimensional problems (see [2]) and therefore such an approach cannot be simple: the BC-method uses asymptotic methods in PDEs, functional analysis, control and system theory, etc. The aim of this lecture course is to provide possibly elementary and transparent introduction to the BC-method. Namely, we present its 1-dimensional version on example of two dynamical inverse problems.
