Introductory Course in Lebesgue Spaces

This book is devoted exclusively to Lebesgue spaces and their directderived spaces. Unique in its sole dedication, this book explores Lebesguespaces, distribution functions and nonincreasing rearrangement.Moreover, it also deals with weak, Lorentz and the more recent variableexponent and grand Lebesgue spaces with considerable detail to theproofs. The book also touches on basic harmonic analysis in theaforementioned spaces. An appendix is given at the end of the book givingit a self-contained character. This work is ideal for teachers, graduatestudents and researchers.
