Anisotropic Calderón conjecture at zero frequency

From papers

Let ΩRn\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n, n3n \geq 3, be a bounded domain with smooth boundary, and let γ1,γ2\gamma_1,\gamma_2 be bounded measurable anisotropic conductivities on Ω\overline{\Omega}. For a conductivity γ\gamma, let Λγ,0\Lambda_{\gamma,0} denote the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map at zero frequency, and for a diffeomorphism Ψ:ΩΩ\Psi:\overline{\Omega}\to\overline{\Omega} define

Ψγ=(DΨγ(DΨ)TdetDΨ)Ψ1.\Psi_*\gamma=\left(\frac{D\Psi\cdot\gamma\cdot(D\Psi)^T}{|\det D\Psi|}\right)\circ\Psi^{-1}.

Anisotropic Calderón conjecture at zero frequency. If

Λγ1,0=Λγ2,0,\Lambda_{\gamma_1,0}=\Lambda_{\gamma_2,0},

then there exists a diffeomorphism Ψ:ΩΩ\Psi:\overline{\Omega}\to\overline{\Omega} with ΨΩ=Id\Psi_{|\partial\Omega}=\operatorname{Id} such that

γ2=Ψγ1.\gamma_2=\Psi_*\gamma_1.

This is the zero-frequency anisotropic Calderón inverse problem, where the boundary measurements are expected to determine the conductivity up to the natural boundary-fixing diffeomorphism gauge. The supplied text gives no resolution evidence, so the conjecture is recorded as open.
