Reconstructing currents from their projections

Aidan Backus

Abstract

We prove an inversion formula for the exterior $k$-plane transform. As a consequence, we show that if $m < k$ then an $m$-current in $\mathbf R^n$ can be reconstructed from its projections onto $\mathbf R^k$, which proves a conjecture of Solomon.

Key Result

Theorem 1

For every $\alpha \in \mathscr S$ and $P \in G$, there exists a smooth $m$-form $\alpha_P$ on $P$ such that for every $x \in \mathbf{R}^n$, and for every compactly supported $m$-current $T$ on $\mathbf{R}^n$,
