Movers and shakers operating in today¿s complex and volatile world often encounter sudden organizational and personal reversals of prospects and fortunes. But the good news is this: Dramatic reversals of fortune are the backdrop against which true heroes can emerge. In such fluid settings, skilled and determined steersmen who know the treacherous waters of the business world and possess distinctively sharp edges can gain latitude to reshape even unattractive environments. This ¿saw wave principle¿ of unsustainable achievement and ultimate revival helps leaders, who are ever more vulnerable to various shocks, to stay ahead of the curve. Brave New Saw Wave World applies this new capstone concept to transitioning Asia¿a quintessential saw wave arena¿in its intricate and changing relationship with the increasingly erratic global environment. It enables helmsmen in different walks of life to fathom the global-Asian nexus and discern the rich opportunities and dangerous storm clouds on the Asian continent that are likely to affect their organizations and careers.

This text introduces the basic concepts of function spaces and operators, both from the continuous and discrete viewpoints. Fourier and Window Fourier Transforms are introduced and used as a guide to arrive at the concept of Wavelet transform. The fundamental aspects of multiresolution representation, and its importance to function discretization and to the construction of wavelets is also discussed. Emphasis is given on ideas and intuition, avoiding the heavy computations which are usually involved in the study of wavelets. Readers should have a basic knowledge of linear algebra, calculus, and some familiarity with complex analysis. Basic knowledge of signal and image processing is desirable. This text originated from a set of notes in Portuguese that the authors wrote for a wavelet course on the Brazilian Mathematical Colloquium in 1997 at IMPA, Rio de Janeiro.
