Abstract

Inverse source problems in divergence form consist in finding a vector field with prescribed support S, whose divergence is the Laplacian of some observed potential. In this paper, we assume the unknown vector field is a vector-valued measure, and we study the corresponding least square inversion problems, regularized by penalizing the total variation, without discretizing the criterion nor the unknown. We prove that this problem has a unique minimizer in the case where S is a slender set; i.e., it has zero Lebesgue measure and each connected component of its complement has infinite Lebesgue measure. The proof relies on a refinement of Smirnov's decomposition of divergence-free measures [62] which is of independent interest.
