Higher-order Fourier analysis, developed over prime fields, has been recently used in different areas of computer science, including list decoding, algorithmic decomposition and testing. We extend the tools of higher-order Fourier analysis…

Fourier series multiscale method, a concise and efficient analytical approach for multiscale computation, will be developed out of this series of papers. The second paper is concerned with simultaneous approximation to functions and their…

This review article was first published in 2008 as chapter 11 in the book "Fast Fourier Transforms," edited by C. S. Burrus, for the Connexions project at Rice University, which is sadly no longer online. It gives a high-level overview of…

Let $\tau_k$ be the $k$-fold divisor function. By constructing an approximant of $\tau_k$, denoted as $\tau_k^*$, which is a normalized truncation of the $k$-fold divisor function, we prove that when $\exp\left(C\log^{1/2}X(\log\log…

We prove that, to compute a Boolean function $f$ on $N$ variables with error probability $\epsilon$, any quantum black-box algorithm has to query at least $\frac{1 - 2\sqrt{\epsilon}}{2} \rho_f N = \frac{1 - 2\sqrt{\epsilon}}{2} \bar{S}_f$…

This is the second volume of a textbook for a two-semester course in mathematical analysis. This second volume is about analysis of multi-variable functions. The topics covered include Euclidean spaces, convergence of sequences, open sets…

The probabilistic degree of a Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n\rightarrow \{0,1\}$ is defined to be the smallest $d$ such that there is a random polynomial $\mathbf{P}$ of degree at most $d$ that agrees with $f$ at each point with high…

The \emph{Chow parameters} of a Boolean function $f: \{-1,1\}^n \to \{-1,1\}$ are its $n+1$ degree-0 and degree-1 Fourier coefficients. It has been known since 1961 (Chow, Tannenbaum) that the (exact values of the) Chow parameters of any…

We study two discretisations of the nonlinear Fourier transform of AKNS-ZS type, ${\cal F}^E$ and ${\cal F}^D$. Transformation ${\cal F}^D$ is suitable for studying the distributions of the form $u = \sum_{n = 1}^N u_n \, \delta_{x_n}$,…

Fourier analysis on the discrete hypercubes $\{-1,1\}^n$ has found numerous applications in learning theory. A recent breakthrough involves the use of a classical result from Fourier analysis, the Bohnenblust--Hille inequality, in the…

The class of type-two basic feasible functionals ($\mathtt{BFF}_2$) is the analogue of $\mathtt{FP}$ (polynomial time functions) for type-2 functionals, that is, functionals that can take (first-order) functions as arguments.…

We obtain an exact formula for the Fourier transform of multiradial functions, i.e., functions of the form $\Phi(x)=\phi(|x_1|, \dots, |x_m|)$, $x_i\in \mathbf R^{n_i}$, in terms of the Fourier transform of the function $\phi$ on $\mathbf…
