Funded Activity Summary

Probing the earth and the universe with microlocal analysis. This project aims to use the theory of microlocal analysis to determine the amount of information one can recover about the earth and the universe by making observations on wave propagation. In addition to applications to seismic imaging and cosmology, this project will generate new knowledge in the field of differential geometry and dynamical systems. This will be accomplished by formulating the tomography problem in the language of differential geometry and introduce new analysis techniques to study them. Expected outcome of this project will be new rigidity type results in Lorentzian and Riemannian geometry. There is also the potential for downstream impacts in seismic and cosmological imaging.
