Exercises for Fourier Analysis

by T.W. Körner

Fourier analysis is an indispensable tool for physicists, engineers and mathematicians. A wide variety of the techniques and applications of fourier analysis are discussed in Dr. Körner's highly popular book, An Introduction to Fourier Analysis (1988). In this book, Dr. Körner has compiled a collection of exercises on Fourier analysis that will thoroughly test the reader's understanding of the subject. They are arranged chapter by chapter to correspond with An Introduction to Fourier Analysis, and for all who enjoyed that book, this companion volume will be an essential purchase.

He studied at Trinity Hall, Cambridge, and wrote his PhD thesis Some Results on Kronecker, Dirichlet and Helson Sets there in 1971, studying under Nicholas Varopoulos. In 1972 he won the Salem Prize.

He has written three academic mathematics books aimed at undergraduates, and two books aimed at secondary school students, the popular 1996 title The Pleasures of Counting and Naive Decision Making (published 2008) on probability, statistics and game theory.
