Over the past decade, wavelets and frames have emerged as increasingly powerful tools of analysis on $n$-dimension Euclidean space. Both wavelets and frames were studied initially by using classical Fourier analysis. However, in recent years more abstract tools have been introduced, for example, from operator theory, abstract harmonic analysis, von Neumann algebras, etc. The editors of this volume organized a Special Session on the functional and harmonic analysis of wavelets at the San Antonio (TX) Joint Mathematics Meetings. The goal of the session was to focus research

This book surveys the application of the recently developed technique of the wavelet transform to a wide range of physical fields, including astrophysics, turbulence, meteorology, plasma physics, atomic and solid state physics, multifractals occurring in physics, biophysics (in medicine and physiology) and mathematical physics. The wavelet transform can analyze scale-dependent characteristics of a signal (or image) locally, unlike the Fourier transform, and more flexibly than the windowed Fourier transform developed by Gabor fifty years ago. The continuous wavelet transform is used mostly for

In recent years there has been an explosion of interest in wavelets, in a wide range of fields in science and engineering and beyond. This book brings together contributions from researchers from disparate fields, both in order to demonstrate to a wide readership the current breadth of work in wavelets, and to encourage cross-fertilization of ideas. It demonstrates the genuinely interdisplinary nature of wavelet research and applications. Particular areas covered include turbulence, statistics, time series analysis, signal and image processing, the physiology of vision, astronomy, economics an

Advances have shown wavelets to be an effective mathematical tool for theoretical physics. This text offers an overview of the progress. It includes an introduction to wavelet analysis, and applications in the fields of high energy physics, astrophysics, cosmology and statistical physics. The topics are selected for the interests of physicists and graduate students of theoretical studies. It emphasizes the need for wavelets in describing and revealing structure in physical problems.

"Wavelets Made Easy", written at the level of a first course in calculus and linear algebra, offers a lucid and concise explanation of mathematical wavelets. Evolving from ten years of classroom use, its accessible presentation is designed for undergraduates in a variety of disciplines -- computer science, engineering, mathematics, mathematical sciences -- as well as for practicing professionals in these areas. This unique text starts the first chapter with a description of the key features and applications of wavelets, focusing on Haar’s wavelets but using only high school mathematic

This volume is designed as a textbook for an introductory course on wavelet analysis and time-frequency analysis aimed at graduate students or advanced undergraduates in science and engineering. It can also be used as a self-study or reference book by practicing researchers in signal analysis and related areas. Since the expected audience is not presumed to have a high level of mathematical background, much of the needed analytical machinery is developed from the beginning. The only prerequisites for the first eight chapters are matrix theory, Fourier series, and Fourier integral transforms. E
