Lacking an appropriate enterprise architecture foundation, IT expertise, and ...

The Fbi Transform on Compact C1 Manifolds

The Fbi Transform on Compact C∞ Manifolds

We present a geometric theory of the Fourier-Bros-Iagolnitzer transform on a compact C∞ manifold M . The FBI transform is a generalization of the classical notion of the wave-packet transform. We discuss the mapping properties of the FBI transform and its relationship to the calculus of pseudodifferential operators on M . We also describe the microlocal properties of its range in terms of the “...

The European Commission has focused on ‘access and preservation’ in its planning for Horizon 2020; in the UK the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) has set up the Finch Group (an independent working group that emerged from discussions at a round table meeting on transparency with the Rt Hon David Willett...
