Gel'fand-Calderón's inverse problem for anisotropic conductivities on bordered surfaces in $\mathbb{R}^3$

Let $X$ be a smooth bordered surface in $\real^3$ with smooth boundary and $\hat σ$ a smooth anisotropic conductivity on $X$. If the genus of $X$ is given, then starting from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator $Λ_{\hat σ}$ on $\partial X$, we give an explicit procedure to find a unique Riemann surface $Y$ (up to a biholomorphism), an isotropic conductivity $σ$ on $Y$ and the boundary values of a quasiconformal diffeomorphism $F: X \to Y$ which transforms $\hat σ$ into $σ$. As a corollary we obtain the following uniqueness result: if $σ_1, σ_2$ are two smooth anisotropic conductivities on $X$ with $Λ_{σ_1}= Λ_{σ_2}$, then there exists a smooth diffeomorphism $Φ: \bar X \to \bar X$ which transforms $σ_1$ into $σ_2$.
