Abstract

One possible interpretation of the geodetic use of DC is the so-called Change of Boundary method. This is essentially an iterative procedure pulling back the data from the actual complicated boundary to a Bjerhammer sphere, solving the corresponding BVP by a Poisson kernel and then going to residuals. A rigorous proof of convergence of the above method is still lacking, although a fine perturbative analysis conducted in Appendix A seems to answer in positive sense to such question.
