Abstract |
|
We consider a second-order self-adjoint elliptic operator with an anisotropic diffusion matrix having a jump across a smooth hypersurface. We prove the existence of a weight function such that a Carleman estimate holds true. We also prove that the conditions imposed on the weight function are sharp. |
