  Special Colloquium

  Speaker:	Professor Ingrid Daubechies, Princeton University
  Title:	Wavelets: An Overview, with Applications
  Time/Place:	12:00 p.m., MacMillan 115

  Abstract:   Wavelets have emerged in the last decade as a synthesis from many disciplines, ranging from pure mathematics (where forerunners were used to study singular integral operators) to electrical engineering (quadrature mirror filters), borrowing in passing from quantum physics, from geophysics and from computer aided design.

  The first part of the talk will present an overview of the ideas in wavelet theory, and show how it fits into the different disciplines in which it is rooted. The second part of the talk will discuss some applications.

  Sponsored by the Division of Applied Mathematics and the Mathematics Department.
