  1. Abstract We introduce and study a new family of tensor tomography problems. At rank 2 it corresponds to linearization of travel time of elastic waves, measured for all polarizations. We provide a kernel characterization for ranks up to 2. The kernels consist of potential tensors, but in an unusual sense: the associated differential operators have degree 2 instead of the familiar 1. The proofs are based on Fourier analysis, Helmholtz decompositions, and cohomology.

  2. Abstract We prove that the reconstruction of a certain type of length spaces from their travel time data on a closed subset is Lipschitz stable. The travel time data is the set of distance functions from the entire space, measured on the chosen closed subset. The case of a Riemannian manifold with boundary with the boundary as the measurement set appears is a classical geometric inverse problem arising from Gel’fand’s inverse boundary spectral problem. Examples of spaces satisfying our assumptions include some non-simple Riemannian manifolds, Euclidean domains with non-trivial topology, and metric trees.
