Stable recovery of a simple irreversible Finsler geometry from travel time data

We show that a simple irreversible Finsler geometry can be recovered uniquely and Lipschitz-stably from its travel time data. We introduce and use a version of Gromov–Hausdorff distance adapted to irreversible metric spaces. In contrast to reversible (e.g. Riemannian) geometry, even the question of stability becomes ill-defined without simplicity.
