Abstract
Let (M, g) be a smooth compact Riemannian manifold with boundary and let dg be the boundary distance function. The Boundary Rigidity problem is the problem about injectivity of the map g → dg (up to a natural obstruction). There are some examples of boundary rigid manifolds (flat metric – M. Gromov, two-dimensional manifolds of non-positive curvature – C. Croke, manifolds with metric, close to flat metric – D.Burago & S.Ivanov, two-dimensional simple manifolds – L.N. Pestov & G.Uhlmann). Here we generalize the last result for two-dimensional SGM manifolds.
