Numerical Solution of Inverse Problems for a Hyperbolic Equation with a Small Parameter Multiplying the Highest Derivative

Resumo

We consider two inverse problems for a hyperbolic equation with a small parameter multiplying the highest derivative. The inverse problems are reduced to systems of linear Volterra integral equations of the second kind for the unknown functions. These systems are used to prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the inverse problems and numerically solve them. The applicability of the methods developed here to the approximate solution of the problem on an unknown source in the heat equation is studied numerically.
