Four Short Courses on Harmonic Analysis

This state-of-the-art textbook covers four research directions in harmonic analysis and presents some of its latest applications. It is the first work that combines spline theory, wavelets, frames, and time-frequency methods up to construction on manifolds other then Rn. Written by internationally renowned mathematicians, the work's main emphasis is on the interdependence of the four modern research directions. Each chapter ends with exercises that allow for a more in-depth understanding of the material and are intended to stimulate the reader toward further research. Four Short Courses in Harmonic Analysis is intended as a graduate-level textbook for a course in harmonic analysis. It is also an excellent reference guide for researchers and practitioners with diverse mathematical backgrounds, including theoretical and applied mathematics, image and signal processing engineering, and communication theory.
