Rodolfo H. Torres
Rodolfo Humberto Torres is an Argentinian American mathematician specializing in harmonic analysis who works as the Vice Chancellor for Research and Economic Development and a Distinguished Professor of Mathematics at the University of California, Riverside. Torres did his undergraduate studies at the National University of Rosario in Argentina, completing a Licentiate (degree), licenciatura there in 1984. He earned his doctorate in 1989 from Washington University in St. Louis, with a dissertation entitled ''On the Boundedness of Certain Operators with Singular Kernels on Distribution Spaces'' and supervised by Björn D. Jawerth. In 2012 he became one of the inaugural fellows of the American Mathematical Society. He was named a Distinguished Professor in 2016. As well as his work in pure mathematics, Torres has also published works on light scattering mechanisms for the colorings of birds and insects. References External linksHome page

Harmonic Analysis
Harmonic analysis is a branch of mathematics concerned with the representation of Function (mathematics), functions or signals as the Superposition principle, superposition of basic waves, and the study of and generalization of the notions of Fourier series and Fourier transforms (i.e. an extended form of Fourier analysis). In the past two centuries, it has become a vast subject with applications in areas as diverse as number theory, representation theory, signal processing, quantum mechanics, tidal analysis and neuroscience. The term "harmonics" originated as the Ancient Greek word ''harmonikos'', meaning "skilled in music". In physical eigenvalue problems, it began to mean waves whose frequencies are Multiple (mathematics), integer multiples of one another, as are the frequencies of the Harmonic series (music), harmonics of music notes, but the term has been generalized beyond its original meaning. The classical Fourier transform on R''n'' is still an area of ongoing research, ...
