Real-Variable Methods in Harmonic AnalysisReal-Variable Methods in Harmonic Analysis 
by Alberto Torchinsky
This text starts with Fourier series, summability, norm convergence, and conjugate function. Additional topics include Hilbert transform, Paley theory, Cauchy integrals on Lipschitz curves, and boundary value problems. 1986 edition.

Harmonic Analysis and the Theory of ProbabilityHarmonic Analysis and the Theory of Probability 
by Salomon Bochner
Written by a distinguished mathematician and educator, this classic text emphasizes stochastic processes and the interchange of stimuli between probability and analysis. It also introduces the author's innovative concept of the characteristic functional. 1955 edition.

Introduction to Abstract Harmonic AnalysisIntroduction to Abstract Harmonic Analysis 
by Lynn H. Loomis
Written by a prominent figure in the field of harmonic analysis, this classic monograph is geared toward advanced undergraduates and graduate students and focuses on methods related to Gelfand's theory of Banach algebra. 1953 edition.
 

Product Description:

Designed as an introduction to harmonic analysis and group representations, this book examines concepts, ideas, results, and techniques related to symmetry groups and Laplacians. Its exposition is based largely on examples and applications of general theory, covering a wide range of topics rather than delving deeply into any particular area.
Author David Gurarie, a Professor of Mathematics at Case Western Reserve University, focuses on discrete or continuous geometrical objects and structures, such as regular graphs, lattices, and symmetric Riemannian manifolds. Starting with the basics of representation theory, Professor Gurarie discusses commutative harmonic analysis, representations of compact and finite groups, Lie groups, and the Heisenberg group and semidirect products. Among numerous applications included are integrable hamiltonian systems, geodesic flows on symmetric spaces, and the spectral theory of the Hydrogen atom (Schrodinger operator with Coulomb potential) explicated by its Runge-Lenz symmetry. Three helpful appendixes include supplemental information, and the text concludes with references, a list of frequently used notations, and an index.
Reprint of the North-Holland, Amsterdam, 1992 edition.
