Description
A Course in Abstract Harmonic Analysis is an introduction to that part of analysis on locally compact groups that can be done with minimal assumptions on the nature of the group. As a generalization of classical Fourier analysis, this abstract theory creates a foundation for a great deal of modern analysis, and it contains a number of elegant resul

Praise for the Previous Edition"This delightful book fills a long-standing gap in the literature on abstract harmonic analysis. ... To the reviewer's knowledge, no one existing book contains all of the topics that are treated in this one. ... [The author's] respect for the subject shows on every hand...through his careful writing style, which is concise, yet simple and elegant. The reviewer would encourage anyone with an interest in harmonic analysis to have this book in his or her personal library. ... a fine book that the reviewer would have been proud to write."
