Abstract<br />

On a fixed smooth compact Riemann surface with boundary (M0,g), we show that,<br />

for the Schrödinger operator g + V with potential V ∈ C 1,α (M0) for some α>0,<br />

the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map N |Ɣ measured on an open set Ɣ ⊂ ∂M0 determines<br />

uniquely the potential V . We also discuss briefly the corresponding consequences for<br />

potential scattering at zero frequency on Riemann surfaces with either asymptotically<br />

Euclidean or asymptotically hyperbolic ends.<br />

1. Introduction<br />

The problem of determining the potential in the Schrödinger operator by boundary<br />

measurement goes back to Calderón [8]andGelfand[12]. Mathematically, it amounts<br />

to asking if one can detect some data from boundary measurement in a domain (or<br />

manifold) with boundary. The typical model to have in mind is the Schrödinger<br />

operator P := g + V , where g is a metric and V is a potential; then we define the<br />

Cauchy data space by<br />

C := (u|∂,∂νu|∂); u ∈ H 1 (), u∈ ker P ,<br />
