Reconstruction of a convolution operator from the right-hand side on the semiaxis.

In this paper, a Volterra integral equation of the first kind in convolutions on the semiaxis when the integral operator kernel and the right-hand side of the equation have a bounded support is considered. An inverse problem of reconstructing the solution to the equation and the integral operator kernel from values of the right-hand side is formulated. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the inverse problem solvability are obtained. A uniqueness and stability theorem is proved. Explicit formulas for reconstruction of the solution and kernel are obtained. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
