John J. Benedetto has had a profound influence not only on the direction of harmonic analysis and its applications, but also on the entire community of people involved in the field. The chapters in this volume – compiled on the occasion of his 80th birthday – are written by leading researchers in the field and pay tribute to John’s many significant and lasting achievements. Covering a wide range of topics in harmonic analysis and related areas, these chapters are organized into four main parts: harmonic analysis, wavelets and frames, sampling and signal processing, and compressed sensing and optimization. An introductory chapter also provides a brief overview of John’s life and mathematical career. This volume will be an excellent reference for graduate students, researchers, and professionals in pure and applied mathematics, engineering, and physics.
