Review text

This article is an expanded version of a talk given at the Southern California Seminar on Analysis and Differential Equations in November 1995, dedicated to Professor V. L. Shapiro on the occasion of his retirement from teaching at the University of California, Riverside. It is a survey paper discussing recent progress on the problems of uniqueness, convergence, and summability of Walsh series, achieved mainly after the appearance of the almost encyclopedic monograph by \textit{F. Schipp}, \textit{W. R. Wade} and \textit{P. Simon} [``Walsh series. An introduction to dyadic harmonic analysis (1990; Zbl 0727.42017)]. In applications such as filtering, image enhancement, data compression and approximation, the Walsh transform can be handled easier and more quickly than the trigonometric Fourier transform. For this reason, the Walsh system is preferred when weight and space are at a premium, for example, the Mariner spacecraft used the Walsh transform instead of the Fourier transform. Table of contents: 1. Introduction. 2. Why study Walsh series? 3. Uniqueness. 4. Convergence. 5. Summability. At the end, the Bibliography contains 191 entries. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0872.00037].
