When it comes to mathematics, the average person can probably get through most of life well enough with just basic algebra. Some simple statistical concepts would be helpful, and a little calculus ...

Amid the chaos of revolutionary France, one man’s mathematical obsession gave way to a calculation that now underpins much of mathematics and physics. The calculation, called the Fourier transform, ...

Every non-zero complex homomorphism of the almost periodic functions on an abelian group is induced by the Fourier transform. A Plancherel formula for almost periodic functions and a necessary ...

Discover how Fourier Analysis breaks down complex time series data into simpler components to identify trends and patterns, despite its limitations in stock forecasting.

In less than 100 seconds, Carola-Bibiane Schönlieb of the University of Cambridge in the UK provides a basic definition of a Fourier transform. She explains how this mathematical tool was introduced ...
