Description:
This is a textbook for an introductory course on linear partial differential equations and initial/boundary value problems. It also provides a mathematically rigorous introduction to basic Fourier analysis, which is the main tool used to solve linear PDEs in Cartesian coordinates. Finally, it introduces basic functional analysis. This is necessary to rigorously characterize the convergence of Fourier series, and also to discuss eigenfunctions for linear differential operators.

Nonlinear Fourier Analysisby Terence Tao, Christoph Thiele - arXiv
The nonlinear Fourier transform is the map from the potential of a one dimensional discrete Dirac operator to the transmission and reflection coefficients thereof. Emphasis is on this being a nonlinear variant of the classical Fourier series.
