A modern introduction to the theory of real variables and its applications to all areas of analysis and partial differential equations. The book discusses the foundations of analysis, including the theory of integration, the Lebesque and abstract integrals, the Radon-Nikodym Theorem, the Theory of Banach and Hilbert spaces, and a glimpse of Fourier series. All material is presented in a clear and motivational fashion.

These notes give the basic ingredients of the theory of weighted Hardy spaces of tempered distribution on Rn and illustrate the techniques used. The authors consider properties of weights in a general setting; they derive mean value inequalities for wavelet transforms and introduce halfspace techniques with, for example, nontangential maximal functions and g-functions. This leads to several equivalent definitions of the weighted Hardy space HPW. Fourier multipliers and singular integral operators are applied to the weighted Hardy spaces and complex interpolation is considered. One tool often used here is the atomic decomposition. The methods developed by the authors using the atomic decomposition in the strictly convex case p>1 are of special interest.

This monograph uncovers the full capabilities of the Riemann integral. Setting aside all notions from Lebesgue's theory, the author embarks on an exploration rooted in Riemann's original viewpoint. On this journey, we encounter new results, numerous historical vignettes, and discover a particular handiness for computations and applications. This approach rests on three basic observations. First, a Riemann integrability criterion in terms of oscillations, which is a quantitative formulation of the fact that Riemann integrable functions are continuous a.e. with respect to the Lebesgue measure. Second, the introduction of the concepts of admissible families of partitions and modified Riemann sums. Finally, the fact that most numerical quadrature rules make use of carefully chosen Riemann sums, which makes the Riemann integral, be it proper or improper, most appropriate for this endeavor. A Modern View of the Riemann Integral is intended for enthusiasts keen to explore the potential of Riemann's original notion of integral. The only formal prerequisite is a proof-based familiarity with the Riemann integral, though readers will also need to draw upon mathematical maturity and a scholarly outlook.

It is generally believed that solving problems is the most important part of the learning process in mathematics because it forces students to truly understand the definitions, comb through the theorems and proofs, and think at length about the mathematics. The purpose of this book is to complement the existing literature in introductory real and functional analysis at the graduate level with a variety of conceptual problems (1,457 in total), ranging from easily accessible to thought provoking, mixing the practical and the theoretical aspects of the subject. Problems are grouped into ten chapters covering the main topics usually taught in courses on real and functional analysis. Each of these chapters opens with a brief reader's guide stating the needed definitions and basic results in the area and closes with a short description of the problems. The Problem chapters are accompanied by Solution chapters, which include solutions to two-thirds of the problems. Students can expect the solutions to be written in a direct language that they can understand; usually the most ``natural'' rather than the most elegant solution is presented.

This text starts with Fourier series, summability, norm convergence, and conjugate function. Additional topics include Hilbert transform, Paley theory, Cauchy integrals on Lipschitz curves, and boundary value problems. 1986 edition.
