The book aims at giving a monographic presentation of the abstract
harmonic analysis of hypergroups, while combining it with applied
topics of spectral analysis, approximation by orthogonal expansions
and stochastic sequences. Hypergroups are locally compact Hausdorff
spaces equipped with a convolution, an involution and a unit
element. Related algebraic structures had already been studied by
Frobenius around 1900. Their axiomatic characterisation in harmonic
analysis was later developed in the 1970s. Hypergoups naturally
emerge in seemingly different application areas as time series
analysis, probability theory and theoretical physics.The book
presents harmonic analysis on commutative and polynomial
hypergroups as well as weakly stationary random fields and
sequences thereon. For polynomial hypergroups also difference
equations and stationary sequences are considered. At greater
extent than in the existing literature, the book compiles a rather
comprehensive list of hypergroups, in particular of polynomial
hypergroups. With an eye on readers at advanced undergraduate and
graduate level, the proofs are generally worked out in careful
detail. The bibliography is extensive.
