Abstract

In this paper, we consider the problem for identifying the unknown source in the Poisson equation in a half unbounded domain. A conditional stability result is given and a quasi-boundary value regularization method is presented to deal with this problem. For the regularization solution, the Hölder type stability estimate between the regularization solution and the exact solution is given. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the accuracy and efficiency of this method.MSC:35R25, 47A52, 35R30.

Summary

Introduction

Inverse source problems arise in many branches of science and engineering, e.g. heat conduction, crack identification, electromagnetic theory, geophysical prospecting, and pollutant detection. To the author’s knowledge, there were few papers for identifying an unknown source in the Poisson equation using the regularization method. In [ ], the author identified the unknown point source using the projective method. In [ ], the authors identified the unknown source dependent only on one variable using the method of fundamental solution.
