It is now well know that the measure algebra [script capital]M([italic capital]G) of a locally compact group can be regarded as a subalgebra of the operator algebra [italic capital]B([italic capital]B([italic capital]L²([italic capital]G))) of the operator algebra [italic capita…
The first part of Chapter 16 in Ramanujan's second notebook is devoted to q-series. Several of the results obtained by Ramanujan are classical, but many are new. In particular, certain elegant q-continued fraction expansions have not appeared heretofore in print. In the remainde…
In this book, the authors establish global Rankin Selberg integrals which determine the standard [italic capital]L function for the group [italic capitals]GL[subscript italic]r x [italic capital]Gʹ, where [italic capital]Gʹ is an isometry group of a nondegenerate symmetric form.…
Path functions and their basic properties are obtained by extending the constructive theory of partition generating functions developed by Sylvester, Durfee, Andrews and others. Path functions also arise when we have an expansion of a function satisfying a linear difference equa…
This memoir offers, via the Rankin-Selberg method, a thorough and comprehensive examination of the degree 16 standard L-function of the product of two rank two symplectic similitude groups, which includes the study of the global integral of Rankin Selberg type and local integral…
A very general set of orthogonal polynomials in one variable that extends the classical polynomials is a set we called the q-Racah polynomials. In an earlier paper we gave the orthogonality relation for these polynomials when the orthogonality is purely discrete. We now give the…
In harmonic analysis on a LCA group G, the term "Fourier transform" has a variety of meanings. It refers to various objects constructed in special ways, depending on the desired theory. The standard theories include the theory of Fourier-Stieltjes transforms, the Plancherel theo…
This memoir consists of three papers in which we develop the method of layer potentials for the heat equation in time-varying domains. In Chapter I we show certain singular integral operators on [italic]L[superscript italic]p are bounded. in Chapter II, we develop a modification…
Maximal functions which measure the smoothness of a function are introduced and studied from the point of view of their relationship to classical smoothness and their use in proving embedding theorems, extension theorems, and various results on differentiation. New spaces of fun…
This study deals with three classes of polynomials which have important applications in the theory of finite differences, in number theory and in classical analysis. These polynomials are closely related to corresponding sequences of numbers, namely the Bernoulli, Euler and gene…
Fourier analysis: an introduction
by Stein, Elias M., Shakarchi, Rami
fromPrinceton lectures in analysis
This first volume, a three-part introduction to the subject, is intended for students with a beginning knowledge of mathematical analysis who are motivated to discover the ideas that shape Fourier analysis. It begins with the simple conviction that Fourier arrived at in the earl…
Bounds for orthogonal polynomials which hold on the 'whole' interval of orthogonality are crucial to investigating mean convergence of orthogonal expansions, weighted approximation theory, and the structure of weighted spaces. This book focuses on a method of obtaining such boun…
