Harmonic Analysis and the Theory of Probability and the Widener Library ArchivesNineteenth century studies of harmonic analysis were closely linked with the work of Joseph Fourier on the theory of heat and with that of P. S. Laplace on probability. During the 1920s, the Fourier transform developed into one of the most effective tools of modern probabilistic research; conversely, the demands of the probability theory stimulated further research into harmonic analysis. Mathematician Salomon Bochner wrote a pair of landmark books on
