Carleman estimates for the general second order operators and applications to inverse problems

We derive Carleman estimates with two large parameters for a general partial di erential
operator of second order under explicit su cient global conditions of pseudo-convexity
on the weight function. We use these estimates to derive the most natural Carleman type
estimates for the anisotropic system of elasticity with residual stress. Also, we give applications
to uniqueness and stability of the continuation, observability, and identi cation of the
residual stress from boundary measurements. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Wichita State University, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics
