Quasianalyticity and geometric rigidity in anisotropic Calderón's problem

Abstract

The anisotropic Calderón problem of determining a smooth Riemannian metric from boundary measurements, up to a boundary-fixing diffeomorphism, remains open in dimensions n≥3~\cite{uhlmann2009electrical}. We establish unique identifiability results in two complementary regimes. In the first, the identity principle for quasianalytic functions propagates boundary information and yields unique identifiability on compact manifolds without a prescribed product structure, including a partial-data consequence; under a prescribed normal geometry, quasianalyticity is needed only in the distinguished direction. In the second, suitable symmetry or one-sided ordering assumptions lead to unique identifiability at C∞ regularity with full or restricted boundary access. Taken together, the results exhibit a tradeoff among regularity, geometric structure, and boundary access: quasianalyticity supplies continuation when no global product structure is prescribed, while symmetry or one-sided order replaces that continuation at C∞ regularity.
