This monograph deals with methods of studying multidimensional inverse problems for kinetic and other evolution equations, in particular transfer equations. The methods used are applied to concrete inverse problems, especially multidimensional inverse problems applicable in linear and nonlinear statements.
A significant part of the book contains formulas and relations for solving inverse problems, including formulas for the solution and coefficients of kinetic equations, differential-difference equations, nonlinear evolution equations, and second order equations.
