Landweber iteration regularization method for identifying unknown source on a columnar symmetric domain

Abstract

In this paper, an inverse source problem for the Helium Production–Diffusion Equation on a columnar symmetric domain is investigated. Based on an a priori assumption, the optimal error bound analysis and a conditional stability result are given. This problem is ill-posed and Landweber iteration regularization method is used to deal with this problem. Convergence estimates are presented under the priori and the posteriori regularization choice rules. For the a priori and the a posteriori regularization parameters choice rules, the convergence error estimates are all order optimal. Numerical examples are given to show that the regularization method is effective and stable for dealing with this ill-posed problem.
