About this book
Nitya kaaler utshab taba Bishyer-i-dipaalika Aami shudhu tar-i-mateer pradeep Jaalao tahaar shikhaa 1 - Tagore Should authors feel compelled to justify the writing of yet another book? In an overpopulated world, should parents feel compelled to justify bringing forth yet another child? Perhaps not! But an act of creation is also an act of love, and a love story can always be happily shared. In writing this book, it has been our feeling that, in all of the wealth of material on coherent states and wavelets, there exists a lack of a discern able, unifying mathematical perspective. The use of wavelets in research and technology has witnessed explosive growth in recent years, while the use of coherent states in numerous areas of theoretical and experimental physics has been an established trend for decades. Yet it is not at all un common to find practitioners in either one of the two disciplines who are hardly aware of one discipline's links to the other. Currently, many books are on the market that treat the subject of wavelets from a wide range of perspectives and with windows on one or several areas of a large spectrum IThine is an eternal celebration '" A cosmic Festival of Lights! '" Therein I am a mere flicker of a wicker lamp, , . 0 kindle its flame (my Master!), vi Preface of possible applications.
Reviews
From the reviews:
"The subject of coherent states and/or wavelets (CS-W) is a hot topic for decades. … Personally I prefer the book under review to many other ones published before. … It is clearly written, mathematically sound and well illustrated … . Short but informative historical remarks in the text additionally guide through the literature. The index is useful too. … I recommend this book to everyone who wishes to learn CS-W, or already works in the area, or just needs a good reference source." (Vladimir V. Kisil, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1064, 2005)
