    The method of approximate inverse: theory and applications
    • 2012

      Regularization methods for stable approximate solutions are essential for addressing inverse and ill-posed problems, which appear in diverse fields such as medical imaging, non-destructive testing, finance, and systems biology. Many of these issues involve parameter identification in partial differential equations (PDEs), making them computationally intensive and mathematically complex. Thus, there is a critical demand for stable, efficient solvers and rigorous convergence analyses for these methods. This monograph is divided into five parts. Part I emphasizes the significance of developing and analyzing regularization methods in Banach spaces, highlighting four applications that necessitate this framework and briefly discussing sparsity constraints. Part II provides a summary of the mathematical tools required for analysis in Banach spaces. Part III reviews the current advancements in Tikhonov regularization within these spaces. Part IV focuses on iterative regularization methods, addressing linear operator equations and the iterative solutions of nonlinear equations using gradient-type methods and the iteratively regularized Gauß-Newton method. Finally, Part V presents the method of approximate inverse, which relies on the efficient evaluation of measured data with reconstruction kernels.

      Inverse problems arise whenever one tries to calculate a required quantity from given measurements of a second quantity that is associated to the first one. Besides medical imaging and non-destructive testing, inverse problems also play an increasing role in other disciplines such as industrial and financial mathematics. Hence, there is a need for stable and efficient solvers. The book is concerned with the method of approximate inverse which is a regularization technique for stably solving inverse problems in various settings such as L 2 -spaces, Hilbert spaces or spaces of distributions. The performance and functionality of the method is demonstrated on several examples from medical imaging and non-destructive testing such as computerized tomography, Doppler tomography, SONAR, X-ray diffractometry and thermoacoustic computerized tomography. The book addresses graduate students and researchers interested in the numerical analysis of inverse problems and regularization techniques or in efficient solvers for the applications mentioned above.

      The book examines the paradox of the financial media boom, highlighting its failure to democratize financial markets despite an increase in information sources. Thomas Schuster argues that this expansion has led to negative consequences, imposing significant costs on individuals and the broader economic system. Through a critical analysis, it reveals the limitations of economic communication in truly benefiting market participants.
