Textbook: "Classical Fourier Analysis" by Loukas Grafakos. The UCSD library makes the book available electronically.

Additional reading: "Harmonic Analysis" by Elias Stein, Terence Tao's notes .


We will cover the following topics:
Fourier transform in classical and distributional sense, Calderon-Zygmund theory for singular integral operators,
Sobolev spaces using Riesz and Bessel potentials, Littlewood-Paley theory, Oscillatory integrals and applications,
Applications to Partial Differential Equations.


Homework will be assigned biweekly. Working on the Homework is optional.


Notes: Introduction, Basic Real Analysis, The Fourier transform , The Calderon-Zygmund theory, multiplier theory , Riesz and Bessel potentials, Sobolev and Lipschitz spaces.
