Funktionsanalyse og transformation

The primary goal of this book is to present the theoretical foundation of the field of Euclidean Harmonic analysis. This book is Modern in that is contains more recent topics such as function spaces, atomic decompositions, singular integrals of nonconvolution type, and weighted inequalities. This book is mainly addressed to graduate students in mathematics. The prerequisites are satisfactory completion of courses in real and complex variables, and knowledge of classical Fourier analysis topics. This book is intended to present the selected topics in depth and stimulate further study. This third edition includes a new chapter entitled "e;Multilinear Harmonic Analysis"e;, which includes sections on multilinear operators, multilinear interpolation, multilinear multiplier operators, Calderon-Zygmund operators of several functions, and multiple weights and weighted norm inequalities. The new chapter will tie nicely with the material in chapters 8, 9, and 10, and the author may add a new section in this chapter applying the techniques of chapter 11 in the context of multilinear harmonic analysis. In addition to a new chapter, the third edition contains 1000 different corrections and improvements in the existing text, more examples and applications, new and more relevant hints for the existing exercises, about 20-30 new exercises in the existing chapters, and improved references.

This book contains the classical topics such as interpolation, Fourier series, the Fourier transform, maximal functions, singular integrals, and Littlewood-Paley theory. This book is mainly addressed to graduate students in mathematics. The prerequisites are satisfactory completion of courses in real and complex variables. This book is intended to present the selected topics in depth and stimulate further study. This third edition includes a new chapter entitled "e;Topics on Fourier series,"e; which includes sections on Gibbs phenomenon, summability methods and Jackson's theorem, Tauberian theorems, spherical Fourier inversion, and Fourier transforms on the line. The new chapter ties really well with the material in the existing chapter 3 "e;Fourier Analysis on the Torus"e; and will prepare the students for (the existing) chapter 4. In addition to a new chapter, the third edition contains 1000 different corrections and improvements in the existing text, more examples and applications, new and more relevant hints for the existing exercises, about 20-30 new exercises in the existing chapters, and improved references.

The present volume contains the proceedings of the workshop on "e;Minimax Theory and Applications"e; that was held during the week 30 September - 6 October 1996 at the "e;G. Stampacchia"e; International School of Mathematics of the "e;E. Majorana"e; Centre for Scientific Cul- ture in Erice (Italy) . The main theme of the workshop was minimax theory in its most classical meaning. That is to say, given a real-valued function f on a product space X x Y , one tries to find conditions that ensure the validity of the equality sup inf f(x,y) = inf sup f(x, y). yEY xEX xEX yEY This is not an appropriate place to enter into the technical details of the proofs of minimax theorems, or into the history of the contribu- tions to the solution of this basic problem in the last 7 decades. But we do want to stress its intrinsic interest and point out that, in spite of its extremely simple formulation, it conceals a great wealth of ideas. This is clearly shown by the large variety of methods and tools that have been used to study it. The applications of minimax theory are also extremely interesting. In fact, the need for the ability to "e;switch quantifiers"e; arises in a seemingly boundless range of different situations. So, the good quality of a minimax theorem can also be judged by its applicability. We hope that this volume will offer a rather complete account of the state of the art of the subject.

Scale is a concept the antiquity of which can hardly be traced. Certainly the familiar phenomena that accompany sc ale changes in optical patterns are mentioned in the earliest written records. The most obvious topological changes such as the creation or annihilation of details have been a topic to philosophers, artists and later scientists. This appears to of fascination be the case for all cultures from which extensive written records exist. For th instance, chinese 17 c artist manuals remark that "e;distant faces have no eyes"e; . The merging of details is also obvious to many authors, e. g. , Lucretius mentions the fact that distant islands look like a single one. The one topo- logical event that is (to the best of my knowledge) mentioned only late (by th John Ruskin in his "e;Elements of drawing"e; of the mid 19 c) is the splitting of a blob on blurring. The change of images on a gradual increase of resolu- tion has been a recurring theme in the arts (e. g. , the poetic description of the distant armada in Calderon's The Constant Prince) and this "e;mystery"e; (as Ruskin calls it) is constantly exploited by painters.

Functional analysis arose in the early twentieth century and gradually, conquering one stronghold after another, became a nearly universal mathematical doctrine, not merely a new area of mathematics, but a new mathematical world view. Its appearance was the inevitable consequence of the evolution of all of nineteenth-century mathematics, in particular classical analysis and mathematical physics. Its original basis was formed by Cantor's theory of sets and linear algebra. Its existence answered the question of how to state general principles of a broadly interpreted analysis in a way suitable for the most diverse situations. A.M. Vershik ([45], p. 438). This text evolved from the content of a one semester introductory course in fu- tional analysis that I have taught a number of times since 1996 at the University of Virginia. My students have included ?rst and second year graduate students prep- ing for thesis work in analysis, algebra, or topology, graduate students in various departments in the School of Engineering and Applied Science, and several und- graduate mathematics or physics majors. After a ?rst draft of the manuscript was completed, it was also used for an independent reading course for several und- graduates preparing for graduate school.

This is a revised and expanded edition of a successful graduate and reference text. The book is designed for a standard graduate course on probability theory, including some important applications. The new edition offers a detailed treatment of the core area of probability, and both structural and limit results are presented in detail. Compared to the first edition, the material and presentation are better highlighted; each chapter is improved and updated.

The great mathematician G. H. Hardy told us that ¿Beauty is the ?rst test: there is no permanent place in the world for ugly mathematics¿ (see [24, p. 85]). It is clear why Hardy loved complex analysis: it is a very beautiful partofclassicalmathematics. ThetheoryofHilbertspacesandofoperatorson themisalmostasclassicalandisperhapsasbeautifulascomplexanalysis. The studyoftheHardy¿Hilbertspace(aHilbertspacewhoseelementsareanalytic functions), and of operators on that space, combines these two subjects. The interplay produces a number of extraordinarily elegant results. For example, very elementary concepts from Hilbert space provide simple proofs of the Poisson integral (Theorem 1. 1. 21 below) and Cauchy integral (Theorem 1. 1. 19) formulas. The fundamental theorem about zeros of fu- tions in the Hardy¿Hilbert space (Corollary 2. 4. 10) is the central ingredient of a beautiful proof that every continuous function on [0,1] can be uniformly approximated by polynomials with prime exponents (Corollary 2. 5. 3). The Hardy¿Hilbert space context is necessary to understand the structure of the invariant subspaces of the unilateral shift (Theorem 2. 2. 12). Conversely, pr- erties of the unilateral shift operator are useful in obtaining results on f- torizations of analytic functions (e. g. , Theorem 2. 3. 4) and on other aspects of analytic functions (e. g. , Theorem 2. 3. 3). The study of Toeplitz operators on the Hardy¿Hilbert space is the most natural way of deriving many of the properties of classical Toeplitz mat- ces (e. g. , Theorem 3. 3.

The theory of convex optimization has been constantly developing over the past 30 years.  Most recently, many researchers have been studying more complicated classes of problems that still can be studied by means of convex analysis, so-called "e;anticonvex"e; and "e;convex-anticonvex"e; optimizaton problems.  This manuscript contains an exhaustive presentation of the duality for these classes of problems and some of its generalization in the framework of abstract convexity.  This manuscript will be of great interest for experts in this and related fields.

This book contains 28 research articles from among the 49 papers and abstracts presented at the Tenth International Conference on Fibonacci Numbers and Their Applications. These articles have been selected after a careful review by expert referees, and they range over many areas of mathematics. The Fibonacci numbers and recurrence relations are their unifying bond. We note that the article "e;Fibonacci, Vern and Dan"e; , which follows the Introduction to this volume, is not a research paper. It is a personal reminiscence by Marjorie Bicknell-Johnson, a longtime member of the Fibonacci Association. The editor believes it will be of interest to all readers. It is anticipated that this book, like the eight predecessors, will be useful to research workers and students at all levels who are interested in the Fibonacci numbers and their applications.
