Determining rough first order perturbations of the polyharmonic operator

Abstract

We show that the knowledge of Dirichlet to Neumann map for rough $A$ and $q$ in $(-\Delta)^m +A\cdot D +q$ for $m \geq 2$ for a bounded domain in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n \geq 3$ determines $A$ and $q$ uniquely. This unique identifiability is proved via construction of complex geometrical optics solutions with sufficient decay of remainder terms, by using property of products of functions in Sobolev spaces.
