I will discuss inverse problems involving elliptic partial differential
equations with highly oscillating coefficients. The multiscale nature of
such problems poses a challenge in both the mathematical formulation
and the numerical modeling, which is hard even for forward computations.
I will discuss uniqueness of the inverse in certain problem classes and
give numerical methods for inversion that can be applied to problems in
medical imaging and exploration seismology.
