<p>Hi,</p>
<p>Where goes a characterictic $0$ person, in order to learn about the local harmonic analysis for local fields in characteristic $p$? Is there nice and conscise reference for the local fields in positive characteristic. Something conscise like Sally's survey, which is for characterictic zero only: <a href="http://www.springerlink.com/content/g45268h62705h470/" rel="nofollow">http://www.springerlink.com/content/g45268h62705h470/</a></p>
<p>It should contain some of these: the additive and multiplicative Fourier transform, the Haarmeasures, the Gamma functions, etc.</p>

See </p>

<p>However, if one is interested in analysis of functions $K\to K$, the theory in positive characteristic is completely different from the $p$-adic case. See</p>
