This volume is based on lectures given at the workshop on pseudo-differential operators held at the Fields Institute from December 11, 2006 to December 15, 2006. The two main themes of the workshop and hence this volume are partial differential equations and time-frequency analysis. The contents of this volume consist of five mini-courses for graduate students and post-docs, and fifteen papers on related topics. Of particular interest in this volume are the mathematical underpinnings, applications and ramifications of the relatively new Stockwell transform, which is a hybrid of the Gabor transform and the wavelet transform. The twenty papers in this volume reflect modern trends in the development of pseudo-differential operators.

Titles in this series are co-published with the Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences (Toronto, Ontario, Canada).

Graduate students and research mathematicians interested in pseudo-differential operators.

Reviews

"I do not think it (is) an exaggeration to say that most of us who engage ourselves in study and research, will learn something of the present trends in pseudo-differential operators on just about every page. ... An equally outstanding feature of an outstanding volume apart from an excellent layout of mathematical equations, is the list of references appended to each paper."
