Generalized Functions

Theory and Applications
For example, Chapters 12 and 13 of the first edition have been consolidated into Chapter 12ofthis edition by ajudicious process of elimination and addition of the subject matter. Similarly, some sections of Chapter 15 have been revised and included in earlier chapters to improve the logical flow of ideas.
This second edition of Generalized Functions has been strengthened in many ways. The already extensive set of examples has been expanded. Since the publication of the first edition,there hasbeen tremendous growth inthe subject and Ihave attempted to incorporate some of these new concepts. Accordingly, almost all the chapters have been revised. The bibliography has been enlarged considerably. Some of the material has been reorganized. For example, Chapters 12 and 13 of the first edition have been consolidated into Chapter 12ofthis edition by ajudicious process of elimination and addition of the subject matter. The new Chapter 13 explains the interplay between the theories of moments, asymptotics, and singular perturbations. Similarly, some sections of Chapter 15 have been revised and included in earlier chapters to improve the logical flow of ideas. However, two sections are retained. The section dealing with the application to the probability theory has been revised, and I am thankful to Professor Z. L. Crvenkovic for her help. The new material included in this chapter pertains to the modem topics of periodic distributions and microlocal theory. I have demonstrated through various examples that familiarity with the generalized functions is very helpful for students in physical sciences and technology. For instance, the reader will realize from Chapter 6 how the generalized functions have revolutionized the Fourier analysis which is being used extensively in many fields of scientific activity.
