Linearized inverse Schrödinger potential problem at a large wavenumber

We investigate recovery of the (Schrödinger) potential function from many boundary measurements at a large wavenumber. By considering such a linearized form, we obtain a Hölder type stability which is a big improvement over a logarithmic stability in low wavenumbers. Furthermore we extend the discussion to the linearized inverse Schrödinger potential problem with attenuation, where an exponential dependence of the attenuation constant is traced in the stability estimate. Based on the linearized problem, a reconstruction algorithm is proposed aiming at the recovery of the Fourier modes of the potential function. By choosing the large wavenumber appropriately, we verify the efficiency of the proposed algorithm by several numerical examples.
