MAA Press: An Imprint of the American Mathematical Society
Fourier Series, Fourier Transforms, and Function Spaces is
designed as a textbook for a second course or capstone course in
analysis for advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate students.
By assuming the existence and properties of the Lebesgue integral,
this book makes it possible for students who have previously taken
only one course in real analysis to learn Fourier analysis in terms of
Hilbert spaces, allowing for both a deeper and more elegant approach.
This approach also allows junior and senior undergraduates to study
topics like PDEs, quantum mechanics, and signal processing in a
rigorous manner.
Students interested in statistics (time series), machine learning
(kernel methods), mathematical physics (quantum mechanics), or
electrical engineering (signal processing) will find this book useful.
With 400 problems, many of which guide readers in developing key
theoretical concepts themselves, this text can also be adapted to
self-study or an inquiry-based approach. Finally, of course, this
text can also serve as motivation and preparation for students going
on to further study in analysis.
Readership
Undergraduate and graduate students and researchers interested in analysis, differential equations, and applied math.
Reviews & Endorsements
This is an interesting take on the second course in analysis: rather than the Lebesgue integral, we study Fourier analysis and applications. The book is well done and makes a strong case for this approach. The Introduction (which is the Introduction for the Instructor) is one of the best I.ve read, and you should definitely study if you are considering adopting the book. It explains very clearly the goals of the book, the limitations of this approach, and some other unusual features of the book.
