- Abstract: We show that on a simple Riemannian manifold, the electric potential and the solenoidal part of the magnetic potential appearing in the magnetic Schrödinger operator can be recovered Hölder stably from the boundary spectral data. This data contains the eigenvalues and the Neumann traces of the corresponding sequence of Dirichlet eigenfunctions of the operator. Our proof contains two parts: (1) We show that the boundary spectral data can be stably obtained from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map associated with the respective initial boundary value problem for a hyperbolic equation, whose leading order terms are a priori known. (2) We construct geometric optics solutions to the hyperbolic equation, which reduce the stable recovery of the lower order terms to the stable inversion of the geodesic ray transform of one-forms and functions. This talk is based on a joint work with Hadrian Quan (UC Santa Cruz), Teemu Saksala (NC State), and Lili Yan (NC State).
