Book excerpt: Fourier Series, Fourier Transform and Their Applications to Mathematical Physics : Applied Mathematical Sciences by Valery SerovThe modern theory of analysis and differential equations in general certainly in-cludes the Fourier transform, Fourier series, integral operators, spectral theory ofdifferential operators, harmonic analysis and much more. This book combines allthese subjects based on a unified approach that uses modern view on all thesethemes. The book consists of four parts: Fourier series and the discrete Fouriertransform, Fourier transform and distributions, Operator theory and integral equa-tions and Introduction to partial differential equations and it outgrew from the half-semester courses of the same name given by the author at University of Oulu, Fin-land during 2005-2015.Each part forms a self-contained text (although they are linked by a commonapproach) and can be read independently. The book is designed to be a modernintroduction to qualitative methods used in harmonic analysis and partial differentialequations (PDEs). It can be noted that a survey of the state of the art for all parts ofthis book can be found in a very recent and fundamental work of B. Simon [35].This book contains about 250 exercises that are an integral part of the text. Eachpart contains its own collection of exercises with own numeration. They are not onlyan integral part of the book, but also indispensable for the understanding of all partswhose collection is the content of this book. It can be expected that a careful readerwill complete all these exercises.This book is intended for graduate level students majoring in pure and appliedmathematics but even an advanced researcher can find here very useful informationwhich previously could only be detected in scientific articles or monographs.Each part of the book begins with its own introduction which contains the facts(mostly) from functional analysis used thereinafter. Some of them are proved whilethe others are not.The first part, Fourier series and the discrete Fourier transform, is devoted tothe classical one-dimensional trigonometric Fourier series with some applicationsto PDEs and signal processing. This part provides a self-contained treatment of allwell known results (but not only) at the beginning graduate level. Compared withsome known texts (see [12, 18, 29, 35, 38, 44, 45]) this part uses many functionspaces such as Sobolev, Besov, Nikol'skii and Holder spaces. All these spaces are introduced by special manner via the Fourier coefficients and they are used in theproofs of main results. Same definition of Sobolev spaces can be found in [35]. Theadvantage of such approach is that we are able to prove quite easily the precise em-beddings for these spaces that are the same as in classical function theory (see [1, 3,26, 42]). In the frame of this part some very delicate properties of the trigonometricFourier series (Chapter 10) are considered using quite elementary proofs (see also[46]). The unified approach allows us also to consider naturally the discrete Fouriertransform and establish its deep connections with the continuous Fourier transform.As a consequence we prove the famous Whittaker-Shannon-Boas theorem about thereconstruction of band-limited signal via the trigonometric Fourier series (see Chap-ter 13). Many applications of the trigonometric Fourier series to the one-dimensionalheat, wave and Laplace equation are presented in Chapter 14. It is accompanied by alarge number of very useful exercises and examples with applications in PDEs (seealso [10, 17]).The second part, Fourier transform and distributions, probably takes a central rolein this book and it is concerned with distribution theory of L. Schwartz and its ap-plications to the Schrodinger and magnetic Schr ̈ odinger operators (see Chapter ̈ 32).
