A method of reconstruction for X-ray phase contrast imaging with arbitrary Fresnel number

New lensless diffractive X-ray technic for micro-scale imaging of biological tissue is based on quantitative phase retrieval schemes. By incorporating refraction, this method yields improved contrast compared to purely absorption-based radiography but involves a phase retrieval problem since of physical limitation of detectors. A general method is proposed in this paper for one step reconstruction of the ray integral of complex refractive index of an optically weak object from intensity distribution of the hologram.

Exact inversion of Funk-Radon transforms with non-algebraic geometries

Any even function defined on 2-sphere is reconstructed from its integrals over big circles by means of the classical Funk formula. For the non-geodesic Funk transform on the sphere of arbitrary dimension, there is the explicit inversion formula similar to that for the geodesic transform. A function defined on the sphere of radius one is integrated over traces of hyperplanes tangent to a sphere contained in the unit ball. This reconstruction is generalized in the paper for Riemannian hypersurfaces in an affine space.

Algebraic symplectic reduction and quantization of singular spaces

The algebraic method of singular reduction is applied for non regular group action on manifolds which provides singular symplectic spaces. The problem of deformation quantization of the singular surfaces is the focus. For some examples of singular Poisson spaces the deformation quantization is explicitly constructed. In is shown that for the flat phase space with the classical moment map and the orthogonal group action the deformation quantization converges for the entire arguments of exponential type.

Time reversal in photoacoustic tomography and levitation in a cavity

A class of photoacoustic acquisition geometries in n-space is considered such that the spherical mean transform admits an exact filtered back projection reconstruction formula. The reconstruction is interpreted as a time reversion mirror that reproduces exactly an arbitrary source distribution in the cavity. A series of examples of non-uniqueness of the inverse potential problem is constructed basing on the same geometrical technique.

Inverse kinematic problem and boundary rigidity of Riemannian surfaces

Given a compact manifold with boundary with unknown Riemannian metric. The problem is to reconstruct the metric in a class of conformal metrics from knowledge of lengths of all closed geodesics (kinematic data). An integral inequality is stated which implies uniqueness and stability for this problem. If the conformal class is not known a unique reconstruction is not possible since of shortage of information. It is proved that the list of all geodesic lengths is sufficient for unique determination of a Riemannian metric in a compact surface with boundary up to an automorphism which fix the boundary. Some related problems of integral geometry are studied. Key words: Geodesic curve, Travel-time, Conjugate point, Geodesic flow, Hodograph, Geodesic integral transform.

Remarks on the general Funk-Radon transform and thermoacoustic tomography

We study properties of the general integral transform defined for a family of hypersurfaces in a smooth manifold. Estimates of Sobolev norms, range conditions and approximation theorem for the kernel of the integral transform are stated. Applications to the spherical mean transform that appears in thermo/opto/photoacoustic tomography are discussed.

Infinitesimal deformation quantization of complex analytic spaces

Global constructions of quantization deformation and obstructions are discussed for an arbitrary complex analytic space in terms of adapted (analytic) Hochschild cohomology. For K3-surfaces an explicit global construction of a Poisson bracket is given. It is shown that the analytic Hochschild (co)homology on a complex space has structure of coherent analytic sheaf in each degree.
