Boundary and scattering rigidity problems in the presence of a magnetic field and a potential

In this paper, we consider a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, endowed with a magnetic potential $α$ and a potential $U$. For brevity, this type of systems are called $\MP$-systems. On simple $\MP$-systems, we consider both the boundary rigidity problem and scattering rigidity problem, see the introduction for details. We show that these two problems are equivalent on simple $\MP$-systems. Unlike the cases of geodesic or magnetic systems, knowing boundary action functions or scattering relations for only one energy level is insufficient to uniquely determine a simple $\MP$-system, even under the assumption that we know the restriction of the system on the boundary $\p M$, and we provide some counterexamples. These problems can only be solved up to an isometry and a gauge transformations of $α$ and $U$. We prove rigidity results for metrics in a given conformal class, for simple real analytic $\MP$-systems and for simple two-dimensional $\MP$-systems.
