New Trends in Microlocal Analysis J. M. Bony Softcover Reprint of the Original 1st Ed. 1997 edition

Description for Sales People: Microlocal analysis, analyzing problems on the phase space (the cotangent bundle of the base space), was initiated by M. Sato around 1970. It is still an active area of mathematics with applications to many fields such as real and complex analysis, representation theory, topology, number theory, and mathematical physics. The present volume covers a large variety of new research. Table of Contents: I.
