Polyhomogeneous mapping properties of the Radon transform and backprojection operator on the unit ball

Seiji Hansen

Abstract

This article covers polyhomogeneous mapping properties of the Radon transform $R$ of smooth functions on the open unit ball $Ω\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ and the back-projection operator $R^*$ on $Z=(-1,1)\times S^{n-1}\subset\mathbb{R}\times S^{n-1}$. We construct a double $b$-fibration which desingularizes the point-hyperplane relation of $\overlineΩ$ as the total space of a fibration over $\overline{Z}$. We provide formulas for $R$ and $R^*$ in operations generated by the associated $b$-fibrations and sharper estimates on the polyhomogeneous mapping properties of $R$ and $R^*$ compared to classic estimates using classic Mellin functional techniques. We include a discussion of a one (complex) parameter family of normal operators associated to $R$ mapping $C^{\infty}(\overlineΩ)$ to itself.

Key Result

Theorem 1

Let nonzero $a\in C^{\infty}(\partial\Omega)$ and $\tilde{a}(x) = a(\frac{x}{|x|})$ be its radial extension, $(\gamma,\ell)\in\mathbb{C}\times\mathbb{N}_0$ with $\mathop{\mathrm{Re}}\nolimits(\gamma) > -1$ and $\chi\in C^{\infty}_c[0,1)$ a cutoff $\chi\equiv1$ near $0$. For every $p\in\mathbb{N}_0$ where $\sim$ is asymptotic equivalence in the sense of asymptoticequivalence and for all $(m,k)\in\
