For graduate-level courses in Fourier or Harmonic Analysis.

Designed specifically for students (rather than researchers), this introduction to Fourier Analysis starts where the real and complex first-year graduate classes end. Students gain a solid foundation in basic concepts through detailed, user-friendly explanations, acquire deeper understanding by working through a variety of examples and exercises, and broaden their applied perspective by reading about recent developments and advances in the subject.

  • This text offers a unique, broad overview of the subject.
    • Provides both a link to the roots of Fourier analysis as well as to the most current developments in the field.

  • Over 500 exercises with hints—Range from simple calculations to challenging problems.
    • Enriches the material and provides students with opportunities to develop additional mathematical intuition and deeper comprehension.

  • Detailed and careful presentation of the material—With several examples worked out completely.
    • Facilitates the understanding of first-time readers and teaches students how to do mathematics rigorously.

  • A detailed proof of the Carleson-Hunt theorem on almost everywhere convergence of Fourier series and integrals of L p functions is included—One of the most difficult and celebrated theorems in Fourier Analysis.
    • Both instructors and students will clearly profit from the careful presentation of this theorem.

  • Extensive historical notes.
    • Provides accurate accounts of past research and suggests directions for future investigation.

  • Complete Appendix—Contains a variety of miscellaneous formulae needed in auxiliary operations that appear in the text.
    • Provides students with one-source convenience—no need to refer to other books.
