Cover Story: This cover illustrates the bounded/blow-up dichotomy underlying the reciprocity gap method for inverse inclusion problems with variable conductivity. The highlighted inclusion represents a heterogeneous region embedded in a conductive medium, while the surrounding field visualizes the growth behavior of the harmonic approximants used in the reconstruction process. The figure highlights the transition from bounded interior behavior to rapidly growing exterior responses, which constitutes the core mechanism underlying the reciprocity gap approach. The work provides a quantitative numerical analysis of this phenomenon in heterogeneous media and shows that the dichotomy remains stable and detectable after discretization and regularization. View this paper
