This volume is dedicated to Fourier analysis, convex geometry, and related topics. The book presents both a broad overview of Fourier analysis and convexity as well as an intricate look at applications in some specific settings; it will be useful to graduate students and researchers in harmonic analysis, convex geometry, functional analysis, number theory, computer science, and combinatorial analysis.

Specific topics covered include:
• the geometric properties of convex bodies
• the study of Radon transforms
• the geometry of numbers
• the study of translational tilings using Fourier analysis
• irregularities in distributions
• Lattice point problems examined in the context of number theory, probability theory, and Fourier analysis
• restriction problems for the Fourier transform

A wide audience will benefit from the careful demonstration of how Fourier analysis is used to distill the essence of many mathematical problems in a natural and elegant way.
