Falk, Richard S. Error estimates for the numerical identification of a variable coefficient. (English) Zbl 0551.65083 Math. Comput. 40, 537-546 (1983). Author’s summary: Error estimates are derived for the approximate identification of an unknown transmissivity coefficient in a partial differential equation describing a model problem in groundwater flow. The approximation scheme considered determines the coefficient by least squares fitting of the observed pressure data.
