Abstract

We present an algorithm for characterising the generalised Dirichlet to Neumann map for moving initial-boundary value problems. This algorithm is derived by combining the so-called global relation, which couples the initial and boundary values of the problem, with a new method for inverting certain one-dimensional integrals. This new method is based on the spectral analysis of an associated ODE and on the use of the d-bar formalism. As an illustration, the Neumann boundary value for the linearised Schroedinger equation is determined in terms of the Dirichlet boundary value and of the initial condition.
