This book presents a scholarly English translation of Henri Lebesgue’s seminal 1909 paper, Sur les Intégrales Singulières, first published in the Annales de l’Université de Toulouse. This foundational work, long known to specialists in French, is made accessible here to a broader mathematical audience through a clear, faithful and pedagogically enriched translation. In addition to the core translation, the book features an original introductory chapter and an appendix by the translator that trace the historical development of harmonic analysis from classical trigonometric series to the Zygmund–Calderón theory, with mention of Carleson’s breakthrough in almost everywhere convergence.The historical survey outlines the evolution of ideas contributed by Dirichlet, Fejér, Dini, Vallée Poussin, Jordan, Kolmogorov, Young and others, illuminating the pathway from early convergence results to modern singular integral theory. The material is presented in structured chapters and enhanced with diagrams, worked examples and graded exercises, offering an accessible yet rigorous learning experience. Supplementary readings are included to encourage deeper exploration and contextual understanding.This volume is ideal for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as researchers interested in Fourier analysis, trigonometric series and the early development of harmonic analysis. It provides a rich conceptual bridge between classical analysis and modern harmonic tools. It is particularly well-suited for courses on harmonic analysis and the historical foundations of integration theory. Mathematicians, educators and historians of mathematics will find in this book both a pedagogical resource and a valuable preservation of Lebesgue’s contribution to the analytic tradition.

This core textbook on functional analysis is intended for senior undergraduates and graduate mathematics students. It is suitable for both classrooms and for self-study. The first in a two-volume series presents all the basic material needed for a solid foundation in the subject. It opens with a concise overview of the historical evolution of the subject and goes on to present foundational material in a clear, succinct manner, integrating original source quotes to enrich the narrative and blending the historical perspectives harmoniously with the flow of the subject. Pedagogically, the short chapters are more conducive for learning, and each chapter concludes with applications (including some unusual ones) to diverse fields and exercises to hone students’ understanding. The applications can also serve as sources for student seminars. Various formulations of the spectral theorem and their equivalence are discussed. Different approaches to some important results are presented to enrich the toolkit of the students. The style is neither terse nor verbose, requiring occasional paper-pencil work from the reader. The bibliography is rich and includes all the original works of the founding fathers. Thumbnail biographies of the mathematicians involved should pep up the readers.

This book introduces the theory of univalent functions, focusing on the key subclasses of starlike, convex and close-to-convex functions. These subclasses play a central role in the study of geometric function theory. The book begins with the general class of univalent functions and studies their basic properties. It then explores essential mathematical tools, including results on growth, distortion and coefficients for bounded analytic functions, as well as the theory of functions with positive real parts and differential subordination. The last three chapters delve into starlike, convex and close-to-convex functions, presenting key results on coefficient bounds, growth, distortion estimates and subordination theorems.Designed for graduate students and early-stage researchers, the book requires minimal prerequisites of a basic course in complex analysis. Detailed proofs have been provided for all results, ensuring that readers can follow the logical development of the material. Exercises given at the end of each chapter offer opportunities for further study and deeper understanding of the concepts. This book serves as both a textbook and a resource for those beginning research in geometric function theory. Its accessible style, coupled with its clear explanations and motivating examples, makes it an ideal choice for anyone looking to explore the fascinating world of univalent functions.

The basic topics of the subject that every analyst should know are discussed in the first volume. This second part ‘Select Topics’ provides glimpses of some beautiful vistas of the functional analytic terrain that a reader may like to explore and enjoy. Introductions to these topics, including those of current interest, with pointers to further edification are provided. An author, with various constraints, necessarily faces a Hamletian dilemma in choosing the topics for such a work. The choices made here are: a little Fourier analysis (Lp, Schwartz and Sobolev spaces, Fourier transform and tempered distributions, interpolation, spectral synthesis), some operator theory (compact, Hilbert-Schmidt, trace class, Fredholm and Toeplitz operators, spectral theorem, invariant subpaces), operator algebras (commutative Banach algebras, C∗algebras, von Neumann algebras and operator spaces), Gabor analysis (Hilbert frames, Gabor frames, Riesz bases, wavelets), Banach space geometry, Schauder bases and functional analytic methods in PDE (scattered throughout the book). It also gives some unusual applications. Several mini courses and projects are possible based on the book, besides an advanced course in Functional Analysis. A historical perspective blending harmoniously with the flow, a clear succinct style that is not terse nor verbose and biographic thumbnails continue. The bibliography is extensive and includes all original sources.
