Abstract

For analytic negatively curved Riemannian manifolds with analytic strictly convex boundary, we show that the scattering map for the geodesic flow determines the manifold up to isometry. In particular, one recovers both the topology and the metric. More generally our result holds in the analytic category under the no conjugate point and hyperbolic trapped set assumptions.
