Stability for Time-domain Elastic Wave Equations

This paper is concerned with the inverse scattering problem involving the time-domain elastic wave equations in a bounded $d$-dimensional domain. First, an explicit reconstruction formula for the density is established by means of the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator. The reconstruction is mainly based on the modified boundary control method and complex geometric optics solutions for the elastic wave. Next, the stable observability is obtained by a Carleman estimate. Finally, the stability for the density is presented by the connect operator.
