An Introduction to Harmonic Analysis

Awarded the American Mathematical Society Steele Prize for Mathematical Exposition, this Introduction, first published in 1968, has firmly established itself as a classic text. Yitzhak Katznelson demonstrates the central ideas of harmonic analysis and provides a stock of examples to foster a clear understanding of the theory. This new edition has been revised to include several new sections and a new appendix.

Yitzhak Katznelson received his Ph.D. from the University of Paris. He is currently a Professor of mathematics at Stanford University, and has also taught at University of C alifornia, Berkeley, Hebrew University andYale University. His mathematical interests include harmonic analysis, ergodic theory, and differentiable dyamics
