The last two subjects mentioned in the title "Wavelets, Time
Frequency Methods and Phase Space" are so well established that
they do not need any explanations. The first is related to them,
but a short introduction is appropriate since the concept of
wavelets emerged fairly recently. Roughly speaking, a wavelet
decomposition is an expansion of an arbitrary function into smooth
localized contributions labeled by a scale and a position pa
rameter. Many of the ideas and techniques related to such
expansions have existed for a long time and are widely used in
mathematical analysis, theoretical physics and engineering.
However, the rate of progress increased significantly when it was
realized that these ideas could give rise to straightforward
calculational methods applicable to different fields. The
interdisciplinary structure (R.C.P. "Ondelettes") of the C.N.R.S.
and help from the Societe Nationale Elf-Aquitaine greatly fostered
these developments. The conference, the proceedings of which are
contained in this volume, was held at the Centre National de
Rencontres Mathematiques (C.N.R.M) in Marseille from December
14-18, 1987 and bought together an interdisciplinary mix of par
ticipants. We hope that these proceedings will convey to the reader
some of the excitement and flavor of the meeting.
