Reconstructing a curve in $S^2$ from intersections with great circles

Take $S^2$ with its standard metric. The space of great circles in $S^2$ can be identified with the real projective plane $\mathbb{R}P^2$. Let $X$ be an embedded circle in $S^2$; associate to it a ...

Kernel of Radon transform in $\mathbb{R}^3$

Consider the Radon transform from the space of functions on the manifold of affine lines in $\mathbb{R}^3$ to functions on the manifold of affine 2-planes in $\mathbb{R}^3$: $$(Rf)(H):=\int_{l\subset ...

Kernel of the Radon transform

Consider the following generalized version of the Radon transform. Let $X,Y,Z$ be compact smooth manifolds. Let $p\colon Z\to X$, $q\colon Z\to Y$ be smooth maps. Let $m$ be a fixed smooth density (...

Interpretation of the integral "with respect to a plane wave" in terms of Radon transform

This question might have a formulation in higher dimensions, but for now let's deal with the 2 dimensional Radon transform: $\newcommand{\R}{\mathbb{R}}$ $$ Rf(\varphi,s)=\int_{-\infty}^\infty f(s\...
