A priori parameter choice in Tikhonov regularization with oversmoothing penalty for non-linear ill-posed problems

Abstract

We study Tikhonov regularization for certain classes of non-linear ill-posed operator equations in Hilbert space. Emphasis is on the case where the solution smoothness fails to have a finite penalty value, as in the preceding study 'Tikhonov regularization with oversmoothing penalty for non-linear ill-posed problems in Hilbert scales'. Inverse Problems 34(1), 2018, by the same authors. Optimal order convergence rates are established for the specific a priori parameter choice, as used for the corresponding linear equations.
