9780521367912: An Introduction to Hankel Operators (London Mathematical Society Student Texts, Series Number 13)

Synopsis

Hankel operators are of wide application in mathematics (functional analysis, operator theory, approximation theory) and engineering (control theory, systems analysis) and this account of them is both elementary and rigorous. The book is based on graduate lectures given to an audience of mathematicians and control engineers, but to make it reasonably self-contained, the author has included several appendices on mathematical topics unlikely to be met by undergraduate engineers. The main prerequisites are basic complex analysis and some functional analysis, but the presentation is kept straightforward, avoiding unnecessary technicalities so that the fundamental results and their applications are evident. Some 45 exercises are included.

Review

This original account of Hankel operators is presented in a challenging direct way that requires only a basic knowledge of complex analysis and functional analysis as prerequisites. -- Book Description
