Title: Problems of Harmonic Analysis related to finite type hypersurfaces in R^3, and Newton polyhedra
Abstract: This article, which grew out of my lecture at the conference "Analysis and Applications: A Conference in Honor of Elias M. Stein" in May 2011, is intended to give an overview on a collection of results which have been obtained jointly with I.I. Ikromov, and in parts also with M. Kempe, and at the same time to give a kind of guided tour through the rather comprehensive proofs of the major results that I shall address. All of our work is highly influenced by the pioneering ideas developed by E.M. Stein.
