SUMMARY:Math Seminar Series
DESCRIPTION:
 Student GAUSS Seminar\n
 \n
 Craig Gross from Michigan 
 State University will be speaking.\n
 \n
 The 
 title of the seminar is "Transform your life 
 (fast!) with the Fast Fourier Transform."\n
 \n
 This will be an expository talk, where we'll 
 begin by introducing Fourier series for periodic 
 functions. After an effusive discussion 
 of their nice properties, we'll move to computer-land 
 and talk about how to approximate coefficients 
 of Fourier series "digitally". This 
 will bring us around to what Gilbert Strang 
 described as "the most important numerical 
 algorithm of our lifetime": the Fast Fourier 
 Transform. We'll talk about how it works and 
 just how fast it really is.\n\n
