Abstract:
 
 In this article, we study the inverse time problem for the
 non-homogeneous heat equation which is a severely ill-posed problem.
 We regularize this problem using the quasi-reversibility method
 and then obtain error estimates on the approximate solutions.
 Solutions are calculated by the contraction principle
 and shown in numerical experiments. We obtain also rates of
 convergence to the exact solution.
