Now in paperback, this remains one of the classic expositions of the theory of wavelets from two of the subject's leading experts. This volume discusses the theory of paradifferential operators and the Cauchy kernel on Lipschitz curves with the emphasis firmly on their connection with wavelet bases. Sparse matrix representations of these operators can be given in terms of wavelet bases that have important applications in image processing and numerical analysis. This method is now widely studied and can be used to tackle a wide variety of problems arising in science and engineering. Put...

This book contains five theses in analysis, by A C Gilbert, N Saito, W Schlag, T Tao and C M Thiele. It covers a broad spectrum of modern harmonic analysis, from Littlewood-Paley theory (wavelets) to subtle interactions of geometry and Fourier oscillations. The common theme of the theses involves intricate local Fourier (or multiscale) decompositions of functions and operators to account for cumulative properties involving size or structure.

This volume explains how the recent advances in wavelet analysis provide new means for multiresolution analysis and describes its wide array of powerful tools. The book covers variations of the windowed Fourier transform, constructions of special waveforms suitable for specific tasks, the use of redundant representations in reconstruction and enhancement, applications of efficient numerical compression as a tool for fast numerical analysis, and approximation properties of various waveforms in different contexts.
