We consider inverse boundary value problems for the Schrödinger equations in two dimensions. Within less regular classes of potentials, we establish a conditional stability estimate of logarithmic order. Moreover we prove the uniqueness within $L^p$-class of potentials with $p>2$.
Keywords: stability, uniqueness., Calderón problem.
