Inverse Monte Carlo refers to the numerical techniques to solve the so-called inverse problem in fluids. Given the structural information (distribution functions) the inverse Monte Carlo technique tries to compute the corresponding interaction potential

Uniqueness theorem

The uniqueness theorem is due to Henderson (Ref. 3).
