Generalized Harmonic Analysis and Wavelet Packets An Elementary Treatment of Theory and Applications

The book presents a more comprehensive treatment of transmutation operators associated with the Bessel operator, and explores many of their properties. They are fundamental in the complete study of the Bessel harmonic analysis and the Bessel wavelet packets. Many applications of these theories and their generalizations have been injected throughout the text by way of a rich collection of problems and references. The results and methods in this book should be of interest to graduate and researchers working in special functions such as Fourier analysis, hypergroup and operator theories, differential equations, probability theory and mathematical physics. Background materials are given in adequate detail to enable a graduate student to proceed rapidly from the very basics of the frontier of research in the area of generalized harmonic analysis and wavelets.
