# First-order inverse evolution equations

• We are concerned with an inverse problem for first order linear evolution equations. We indicate sufficient conditions for existence and uniqueness of a solution to these problems. All the results apply well to inverse problems for equations from mathematical physics. Indeed, as a possible application of the abstract theorems, some examples of partial differential equations are given.
