Abstract

In this note, we study the operator norm of the generalized spherical Radon transform, defined by a smooth measure on the underlying incidence variety. In particular, we prove that for small perturbations of the measure, the spherical Radon transform remains an isomorphism between the corresponding Sobolev spaces.
