# Stability and uniqueness for a two-dimensional inverse boundary value problem for less regular potentials

• 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 $p>2$.
