摘要
We consider an inverse problem arising in nonlinear ultrasound imaging. The prop-agation of ultrasound waves is modeled by a quasilinear wave equation. We make measurements at the boundary of the medium encoded in the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map and we show that these measurements determine the nonlinearity.
