Each separated D m is of C 1,α smooth with 0 < α 1 and non-separated one is the limit of the separated one. D 1 D2 D 3 D 4
6 Important Preliminary Estimates Gradient estimate of solutions for parabolic equations Gradient estimate. Theorem 1 (Fan, Kim, Nagayasu and N).. Let Ω Ω, 0 < t 0 < T. Any sol u to (P): t u (γ u) = 0 in Ω (0, T ) has the following interior regularity est: sup t0 <t<t u(, t) C 1,α (Ω D m ) C u L 2 (Ω (0,T )), where 0 < α min(µ, inclusions.. α 2(α+1) ) and C is indep of the dist between Ω
7 Important Preliminary Estimates Gradient estimate of fundamental solution Gradient estimate of fundamental solution By applying our main theorem and a scaling argument, we obtain pointwise grad. est. for 0 < t s < T, x E(x, t; y, s) C T (t s) n+1 exp 2 of fund sol E(x, t; y, s) for t (γ ). ( ) c x y 2 t s
8 Important Preliminary Estimates Remarks Remarks (i) We can obtain a similar estimate for non-homog parabolic eq : t u (γ u) = g + f. (ii) H. Li-Y. Li extended the result to time dep. parabolic sys. (preprint). But the inclusions are indep. of time. As a simplification of the proof, it can be derived based on the time indep. case by considering F t (x, t; y, s) with F τ = τ E τ, E τ : fund. sol. for the op. with coeff. γ t=τ (iii) The time dependent inclusions case is an open problem. (iv) The elliptic case was proved by Li-Vogelius for scalar equations and Li-Nirenberg ([LN]) for systems, which answered to the Babuška s conjecture. Babuška et al (1999) numerically observed that the gradient est of sol is indep of the distances between inclusions.
9 Important Preliminary Estimates About the proof Idea of Proof Idea of proof: Some interior estimates (Lemma). (ref. Ladyzenskaja-Rivkind-Uralceva) Apply [LN] to (P).
10 Important Preliminary Estimates About the proof Proof. Lemma 2.. Let Ω Ω, 0 < t 0 < T. Any sol u to has the following estimates:. t u (γ u) = 0 in Ω (0, T ) =: Q sup u(, t) L 2 ( Ω) C u L 2 (Q) (standard), t 0<t<T u L ( Ω (t0,t )) C u L 2 (Q) (Di Giorgi s arg.), u t L 2 ( Ω (t0,t )) C u L 2 (Q) ([LRU]).. Remark 3.. (i)this lemma holds for any γ L (Ω). (ii). LRU=Ladyzenskaja-Rivkind-Uralceva.
11 Important Preliminary Estimates About the proof Proof Let Ω 3 Ω 2 Ω 1 Ω 0 := Ω, 0 < δ 1 < δ 2 < T. Then ( ) sup δ2<t<t u(, t) L2 ( Ω C u 2) L 2 (Q), ( ) u t L2 ( Ω 1 (δ 1,T )) C u L 2 (Q). Since t u t (γ u t ) = 0, we have ( ) u t L ( Ω2 (δ 2,T )) C u t L 2 ( Ω1 (δ 1,T )) C u L2 (Q). Now we fix t (δ 2, T ): (γ u) = u t L ( Ω 2 ).
12 Important Preliminary Estimates About the proof Proof Then by [LN], we have u(, t) C 1,α (D m Ω 3 ) ( ) C u(, t) L2 ( Ω + u 2) t(, t) L ( Ω 2). Taking sup δ2 <t<t, we have by (*), (***), sup δ2 <t<t u(, t) C 1,α (D m Ω 3 ) ( ) C sup δ2<t<t u(, t) L2 ( Ω + u 2) t L ( Ω 2 (δ 2,T )) C u L2 (Q).

For j = 1, 2,, we define { v j (y,s) := v + v0j (y,s) V (y,s) := v + G(, ; y, s) ψ j (y,s ) := ψ + ψ0j (y,s ) Ψ (y,s ) := ψ + G (, ; y, s ). in H 2,1 (U T ) as j. {v j (y,s) }, {ψj (y,s )} : Runge s approximation functions
26 Dynamical probe method Pre-indicator function. Definition 4.. (y, s), (y, s ) Ω T {v j (y,s) }, {ψj (y,s ) } W (Ω T ) : Runge s approximation functions Pre-indicator function : I(y, s ; y, s) = lim j Γ N T [ ] A v j (y,s) Γ N ψj T (y,s ) Γ N Λ D( T A v j (y,s) ) Γ N Aψ j T (y s ) Γ N T whenever. the limit exists.

31 Seperated inclusions case result Seperated inclusions case result (theorem). Theorem 8.. Let D consist of separated inclusions, and C, c(λ) be as in the definition above. Fix s (0, T ). (i) C Ω \ D except c(0) and c(1) = J(c(λ), s) < for all λ, 0 λ 1 (ii) C D λ s (0 < λ s < 1) s.t. c(λ s ) D, c(λ) Ω \ D (0 < λ < λ s ) =. λ s = sup{ 0 < λ < 1 ; J(c(λ ), s) < for any 0 < λ < λ }.
32 Seperated inclusions case result Remark : (i) A numerical realization of this reconstruction scheme has been done for isotropic conductivities. (ii) If Γ D and f(, t) = 0 = g(, t) (t > T ) with 0 < T < T, then u(f, g) has the decaying property. That is u(f, g) decays exponentially after t = T. Hence, in this case, we can guarantee the exponential decay of the temperature after the experiment.
33 Outline of the proof Proof of Theorem 6: Consider only the case n = 3 in the rest of the arguments. First, we recall the previous two facts. (i) w (y,s) W (Ω T ) : solution to P D w (y,s) = div x ((Ã A)χ D x V (y,s) ) in Ω T, w (y,s) = 0 on Γ D T, Aw (y,s) = 0 on Γ N T w (y,s) (x, 0) = 0 for x Ω. (ii) I(y, s ; y, s) = w (y,s) (y, s ) w (y,s) A Γ (, ; y, s )dσdt Ω T If y = c(λ) is away from D, it is easy to see the indicator function is finite at y. So, let s consider the case y is close to D.
34 Outline of the proof Setup Note that P D w (y,s) = div x ((Ã A)χ D x V (y,s) ) in Ω T Hence, E(x, t; y, s) := w (y,s) (x, t) + V (y,s) (x, t) ( fundamental solution for P D.) Let P = c(λ 0 ) D for some λ 0 x = y = c(λ 0 δ) C \ D for δ > 0. Φ : R 3 R 3 with Φ(P ) = O (C 1,α diffeomorphism, 0 < α 1), Φ(D) R 3 = {ξ = (ξ 1, ξ 2, ξ 3 ) R 3 ; ξ 3 < 0}, Jacobi matrix of Φ at P = identity matrix.
35 Outline of the proof Let E : t ((A(x) + (Ã(x) A(x))χ D) ) Γ P Γ Γ 0 Γ 0 : t ((A(x) + (Ã(P ) A(x))χ D) ) : t ((A(Φ 1 (ξ)) + (Ã(P ) A(Φ 1 (ξ)))χ ) ) : t ((A(P ) + (Ã(P ) A(P ))χ ) ) : t (A(P ) ) Γ : t (A(x) ). be the fund. sol. and corresponding operators, where χ is the characteristic function of the space R 3.
36 Outline of the proof Main part of the proof Decompose w (y,s) as follows: w (y,s) (x, t) = E(x, t; y, s) Γ(x, t; y, s) = {E(x, t; y, s) Γ P (x, t; y, s)} + {Γ P (x, t; y, s) Γ (Φ(x), t; Φ(y), s)} + {Γ (Φ(x), t; Φ(y), s) Γ 0 (Φ(x), t; Φ(y), s)} + {Γ 0 (Φ(x), t; Φ(y), s) Γ 0 (Φ(x), t; Φ(y), s)} + {Γ 0 (Φ(x), t; Φ(y), s) Γ 0 (x, t; y, s)} + {Γ 0 (x, t; y, s) Γ(x, t; y, s)} + +{Γ(x, t; y, s) V (y,s) (x, t)}, To show : w (y,s) (y, s ) as s s, y D Let ξ = η = Φ(x) = Φ(y) O (δ 0) and consider the case, for example n = 3.
37 Outline of the proof Behavior of each term 1. lim sup E(x, s + ε 2 ; y, s) Γ P (x, s + ε 2 ; y, s) = O(ε µ 3 ), δ 0 as ε lim sup ( Γ p Γ )(ξ, s + ε 2 ; η, s) = O(ε α 3 ) as ε 0. δ 0 3. lim sup Γ (ξ, t + ε 2 ; η, s) Γ 0 (ξ, t + ε 2 ; η, s) = O(ε µ 3 ) as ε 0. δ 0 (In 1,2,3, we used a pointwise space gradient estimate for a fundamental solution of parabolic equation with disconti. coeff..)
38 Outline of the proof 4. Put W (ξ, t; η, s) := Γ 0 (ξ, t; η, s) Γ 0 (ξ, t; η, s) (dominant) Denote W (ξ, t; η, s) for ±ξ n > 0 by W ± (ξ, t; η, s). Then, there exist a constant C > 0 such that lim W + (η, s + ε 2 ; η, s) Cε 3 as ε 0. δ 0 5. lim sup Γ 0 (Φ(x), t; Φ(y), s) Γ 0 (x, t; y, s) = 0. δ 0 6. Let G(x, t; y, s) = Γ 0 (x, t; y, s) Γ(x, t; y, s). Then, lim sup G(y, s + ε 2 ; y, s) = O(ε 2 ) as ε 0. δ 0
39 Outline of the proof 7. It follows from the definitions of Γ and v that Γ(x, t; y, s) V (y,s) (x, t) is C 1 t C 2 x at (y, s) and so bounded in some closed neighborhood of (y, s).
40 Remark for non-separated inclusions case Remark for non-separated inclusions (open question) The previous proof for the separated inclusions case works well except the estimate for W (ξ, t; η, s).

42 Identifying isotropic conductivity Let the conductivity γ be homogeneous and isotropic: γ = 1 + (k 1)χ D (1) with 0 < k 1 (constant). Then, the dominant term of w (y,s) (y, s + ε 2 ) (y D) is W + (η, s + ε; η, s) (δ 0 or η 0), (2) where W + (ξ, t; η, s) = W (ξ, t; η, s) (ξ n > 0) and W (ξ, t; η, s) = Γ 0 (ξ, t; η, s) Γ 0 (ξ, t; η, s) (3) which satisfies t W ξ (1 + (k 1)χ ) ξ W = (k 1) ξ (χ ξ Γ 0 ) (4) with χ is the characteristic function of R n := {ξ n < 0}.
43 Identifying isotropic conductivity Let n = 2, 3. Case k > 1 where k 1 lim W + (η, s + ε 2 ; η, s) = δ 0 2 n π H n(k), (5) 3 n/2 H n (k) = 1 0 (k + 1)r k dr (6) r(r + k(1 r))(kr r + 1) n/2 Case 0 < k < 1 k(1 k) lim W + (η, s + ε 2 ; η, s) = δ 0 2 n 3 π H n(k), (7) 3 n/2 where H n (k) = 1 0 r(1 r) dr (8) (r + k(1 r))(kr r + 1) n/2
44 Identifying isotropic conductivity. Theorem 1.. For the case k > 1 we can prove that k 1H n (k) is monotone increasing. Hence, in this case, we can recover k from the measured data. However, for the case 0 < k < 1, we can only recover k from the measured data for those k in certain intervals. If n = 2, then. k(1 k)h2 (k) is convex.
