## Modified regularization method for the Cauchy problem of the Helmholtz equation.(English)Zbl 1185.65203

Summary: The Cauchy problem for the Helmholtz equation is investigated. It is known that such problem is severely ill-posed. We propose a modified regularization method to solve it based on the solution given by the method of separation of variables. Convergence estimates are presented under two different $$a-priori$$ bounded assumptions for the exact solution. Finally, numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the proposed numerical method.
