Welcome to MTH 634, Fourier Analysis. This course is to provide a theoretical framework for one of the most fundamental and paradigm changing ares of analysis, Fourier analysis. We will consider the analytic and applied areas that this rich area of mathematics offers. We will study Fourier series, its convergence and uses as well as the Fourier transform. Also considered will be an introduction to the very recent area of wavelet analysis.
