Introduction to the Mathematical Theory of Inverse Problems

Andreas Kirsch is a Professor in the Department of Mathematics at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.

“This monograph is a thorough and insightful introduction to the mathematics of inverse problems and a solid improvement of the previous editions, which were used to educate many researchers in the field over the last two and a half decades. As such, the volume is already a classic and can be recommended without reservations to any reader interested in both the foundations and specific examples of inverse problems relevant to modern engineering and sciences.” (Alexander Mamonov, SIAM Review, Vol. 65 (2), 2023)
