Joint metric and connection recovery from one boundary patch
What the paper claims, in its own words
Zero-frequency measurements on any nonempty open boundary patch determine a smooth metric and smooth unitary connection on a trivial Hermitian rank-two bundle over a compact connected manifold of dimension at least three, up to diffeomorphism and gauge fixed on that patch. Inputs and observations use the same patch. In contrast, distinct uniformly positive bounded measurable scalar conductivities on a three-dimensional ball can have identical full-boundary data.
The plain-language explainer for this entry is still coming.
