| contents | We establish Lipschitz stability for both the potential and the initial conditions from a single boundary measurement in the context of a hyperbolic boundary initial value problem. In our setting, the initial conditions are allowed to differ for different potentials. Compared to the traditional B-K method, our approach does not require the time reflection step. This advantage makes it possible to apply our method to the fixed angle inverse scattering problem, which remains unresolved for the single incident wave case. To achieve our result, we impose certain pointwise positivity assumption on the difference of initial conditions. The assumption generalizes previous stability results that usually assume the difference to be zero. We propose the initial-potential problem and prove a potential inverse stable recovery result of it. The initial-potential problem serves as an attempt to relate initial boundary value problem with the scattering problem, and to explore the possibility to relax the positivity requirement on the initial data. We also establish a new pointwise Carleman estimate, whose proof is significantly shorter and the reasoning is much clearer than traditional ones. |
