Course outline:
1. Classical Fourier Analysis (Fourier series, Fourier
transform
on the Euclidean space, discrete Fourier transform and FFT, elements of
abstract harmonic analysis on groups).
2. Topics in real variable methods
(stationary phase, maximal functions, Hilbert transform and singular
integral
operators, multipliers, Littlewood-Paley theory).
3. Introduction to
some of the modern developments (wavelets, time-frequency analysis,
frames).
Recommended Text:
There is no required textbook. However, I recommend the following books:
Part 1. An
Introduction
to Harmonic Analysis by Y. Katznelson (new expanded Cambridge
edition
or the earlier Dover edition).
Part 2. Singular
Integrals and Differentiability Properties of Functions by E. Stein.
Part 3. Ten Lectures on Wavelets by I.
Daubechies; Wavelets
and Operators by Y. Meyer; Foundations of Time-Frequency Analysis
by Karlheinz Gröchenig.
