Summary
This is a book on geometric measure theory and Fourier analysis. The main purpose is to present several topics where these areas meet including some of the very active recent interplay between them. We shall essentially restrict ourselves to questions involving the Fourier transform and Hausdorff dimension leaving many other aspects aside.
The book is intended for graduate students and researchers in mathematics. The prerequisites for reading it are basic real analysis and measure theory. Familiarity with Hausdorff measures and dimension and with Fourier analysis is certainly useful, but all that is needed will be presented in Chapters 2 and 3. Although most of the material has not appeared in book form, there is overlap with several earlier books. In particular, Mattila [1995] covers part of Chapters 4–7, Wolff [2003] of Chapters 14, 19, 20 and 22, and Stein [1993] of 14 and 19–21. Several other overlaps are mentioned in the text. The surveys Iosevich [2001], Łaba [2008], [2014], Mattila [2004], Mitsis [2003a] and Tao [2001], [2004] are closely related to the themes of the book.
