Stability estimates for some parabolic inverse problems with the final overdetermination via a new Carleman estimate

This paper is about H & ouml;lder and Lipschitz stability estimates and uniqueness theorems for some coefficient inverse problems and associated inverse source problems for a general linear parabolic equation of the second order with variable coefficients. The data for the inverse problem are given at the final moment of time t=T. In addition, both Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions are given either on a part or on the entire lateral boundary. Thus, if these boundary conditions are given only at a part of the boundary, then even if the target coefficient is known, still the forward problem is not a classical initial boundary value problem.
