Fourier integral operators with fold singularities.
Sharp estimates are proven for oscillatory integrals with phase functions Φ(x,y), (x,y) ∈ X × Y, under the assumption that the canonical relation projects to T*X and T*Y with fold singularities.
We establish a composition calculus for Fourier integral operators associated with a class of smooth canonical relations . These canonical relations, which arise naturally in integral geometry, are such that : is a Whitney fold and : is a blow-down mapping. If , , then a class of pseudodifferential operators with singular symbols. From this follows boundedness of with a loss of 1/4 derivative.
We survey results concerning the L2 boundedness of oscillatory and Fourier integral operators and discuss applications. The article does not intend to give a broad overview; it mainly focuses on topics related to the work of the authors.

We will describe recent some of the recent theoretical progress on making objects invisible to electromagnetic waves based on singular transformations.
