Poster Title: An inverse method for stellar population synthesis

Abstract: I will talk about an inverse stellar population synthesis method developped by Didier Pelat and myself. This method provides a full knowledge of all possible exact solutions and deals with the minimisation problem when an approached solution is required. In addition, it allows to compute the uncertainties around the solutions and provides a criterium to sort the various solutions by order of merit. After introducing astrophysical constraints while searching for a solution, we found that these have little effect on the results. The method and the analysis have been applied to the central regions of a sample of 10 active and 2 normal galaxies in order to gain new insight into the starburst-AGN connection.
