Distributions - Theory and Applications (Hardcover, 2010)

This text is a concise, application-oriented introduction to the theory of distributions. It presents distributions as a natural method of analysis from both a mathematical and physical point of view. Methods are developed to justify many formal calculations that do not make sense in the classical framework. The discussion emphasizes applications to the general study of linear partial differential equations. The topics include an introduction to distributions, differentiation, convergence, and convolution of distributions, as well as Fourier transformations and spaces of distributions having special properties.The applications relate the theory to solutions of partial differential equations occurring in physics, for instance, in mechanics, optics, quantum mechanics, quantum field theory and signal analysis, which students may encounter throughout their studies.
