abstract
We consider the geometric inverse problem of determining a closed Riemannian manifold from measurements of the heat kernel in an open subset of the manifold. In this paper we analyze the stability of this problem in the class of $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds with bounded diameter and sectional curvature. It is well-known that a sequence in this class of manifolds can collapse to a lower dimensional stratified space when the injectivity radius of the sequence of manifolds goes to zero. We prove the uniqueness of the inverse problem on the limiting spaces of the collapsing manifolds. As a result, we obtain stability results for the inverse problem in the class of manifolds with bounded diameter and sectional curvature.

Inverse spectral problems with sparse data and applications to passive imaging on manifolds
Two theorems show that a potential on a closed Riemannian manifold is uniquely recovered from sparse eigenvalue data and eigenfunction restrictions to an open set, with applications to single-measurement passive imaging.
