Overview

Over the past six decades, several extremely important fields in mathematics have been developed. Among these are Itô calculus, Gaussian measures on Banach spaces, Malliavan calculus, and white noise distribution theory. These subjects have many applications, ranging from finance and economics to physics and biology. Unfortunately, the background information required to conduct research in these subjects presents a tremendous roadblock. The background material primarily stems from an abstract subject known as infinite dimensional topological vector spaces. While this information forms the backdrop for these subjects, the books and papers written about topological vector spaces were never truly written for researchers studying infinite dimensional analysis. Thus, the literature for topological vector spaces is dense and difficult to digest, much of it being written prior to the 1960s. Tools for Infinite Dimensional Analysis aims to address these problems by providing an introduction to the background material for infinite dimensional analysis that is friendly in style and accessible to graduate students and researchers studying the above-mentioned subjects. It will save current and future researchers countless hours and promote research in these areas by removing an obstacle in the path to beginning study in areas of infinite dimensional analysis. Features Focused approach to the subject matter Suitable for graduate students as well as researchers Detailed proofs of primary results

Author Information

Jeremy J. Becnel was born in the rural community of Kraemer, Louisiana, in 1979 and completed his undergraduate studies in mathematics and computer science at Nicholls State University in May 2001. He earned a Master of Science degree from Louisiana State University in December 2002 and a PhD in August 2006. Immediately after graduation, Dr. Becnel began working at Stephen F. Austin State University (SFASU). He has worked at SFASU for fifteen years as a professor in the Department of Mathematics and the Department of Computer Science. During this time, Dr. Becnel has supervised numerous undergraduate research projects and graduate theses. He is a recipient of the National Science Foundation Division of Undergraduate Research grant and a Young Investigator's Grant from the National Security Agency, among others. Through the former grant, he has worked with colleagues to create CalcVR, a virtual reality app for multivariable calculus. His research interests include quantum computing, Radon transforms, probability theory, white noise analysis, and topological vector spaces. Dr. Becnel currently lives in the small town of Nacogdoches, Texas with his wife, Kesha, along with their daughters, Alyssa and Anna.
