Global identifiability of low regularity fluid parameters in acoustic tomography of moving fluid

We are concerned with inverse boundary problems for first order perturbations of the Laplacian, which arise as model operators in the acoustic tomography of a moving fluid. We show that the knowledge of the Dirichlet--to--Neumann map on the boundary of a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 3$, determines the first order perturbation of low regularity up to a natural gauge transformation, which sometimes is trivial. As an application, we recover the fluid parameters of low regularity from boundary measurements, sharpening the regularity assumptions in the recent results of [1] and [3]. In particular, we allow some fluid parameters to be discontinuous.
