Abstract

Abstract The wave equation is time-reversal invariant. The enclosure method, using a Neumann data generated by this invariance, is introduced. The method yields the minimum ball that is centered at a given arbitrary point and encloses an unknown obstacle embedded in a known bounded domain from a single point on the graph of the so-called response operator on the boundary of the domain over a finite time interval. The occurrence of the lacuna in the solution of the free space wave equation is positively used.
