Abstract:
Let be a Riemannian metric defined on a bounded domain with boundary and let be a vector field on satisfying . We show that if is a gradient field of a solution to the equation on , then both inner products and are uniquely determined by the restriction of the tensor to the gradient field , where is the Lie derivative of the metric tensor under the vector field and . This work solves a problem related to an inverse boundary value problem for nonlinear elliptic equations.
