Two-dimensional Calderon problem and flat metrics

Abstract

For a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with boundary $\partial M$, the Diri\-chl\-et-to-Neumann operator $\Lambda_g:C^\infty(\partial M)\longrightarrow C^\infty(\partial M)$ is defined by $\Lambda_gf=\left.\frac{\partial u}{\partial\nu}\right|_{\partial M}$, where $\nu$ is the unit outer normal vector to the boundary and $u$ is the solution to the Dirichlet problem $\Delta_gu=0,\ u|_{\partial M}=f$. Let $g_\partial$ be the Riemannian metric on $\partial M$ induced by $g$. The Calderon problem is posed as follows: To what extent is $(M,g)$ determined by the data $(\partial M,g_\partial,\Lambda_g)$? We prove the uniqueness theorem: A compact connected two-dimensional Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with non-empty boundary is determined by the data $(\partial M,g_\partial,\Lambda_g)$ uniquely up to conformal equivalence.
