Abstract for Graduate Research Symposium

 

   Oscillatory integrals have been an essential part of harmonic analysis since the beginnings of the subject.  There are two main types:  oscillatory integrals of the first kind and oscillatory integrals of the second kind.  Oscillatory integrals of the first kind deal with a single variable function. The Fourier Transform is a well-known example.  Oscillatory integrals of the second kind deal with functions of two variables. My research looks at the Lp boundedness of oscillatory integrals of the second kind through an in-depth examination of two papers “Lp Estimates for Oscillatory Integral Operators,” a paper by Leslie C. Cheng and Yibiao Pan, and ``On a Stopping Process of Oscillatory Integrals” by D.H. Phong and E.M. Stein.
