Mathematics Colloquium
Thursday, October 5, 1995, 4:00pm
Professor John J. Benedetto
University of Maryland
speaks on
Wiener's Generalized Harmonic Analysis
and
Wavelet Systems
Abstract:
Wiener's Generalized Harmonic Analysis is an old topic and wavelet
theory is a new one. They both address problems in signal processing
and turbulence, as well as other applications. Mathematically, they have
common roots in Fourier analysis, including topics such as the classical
uncertainty principle inequality and spectral estimation methods. This
material is described, along with recent related results such as
Bourgain's Phase Plane Theorem, and the quantitative definition of the
Fourier transform for weighted spaces.
Tea: High tea will be served at 3:30pm in the
Lounge.
Emmy's: Certain refreshments will be available
at the Emmy's after the talk.
Host: Tim Olson will be the
host, anybody interested in having dinner with the speaker should
contact Tim.
