Periodic Functions Of Fourier Series

Image
Periodic Functions Of Fourier Series :              Generally, periodic functions are the functions which returns the same value in regular interval of time . But in trigonometric functions , it returns the same value in the time interval of 2π radian .   For example :               The best example to describe periodic functions is sine function i.e,        sin(x+2π) = sinx         So as discussed before Fourier series is generated by these types of periodic functions like sine and cosine functions . Theorem Related To Periodic Function of Fourier Series :         For a periodic function of period 2π , prove that              β          β+2π     (i)   ∫ f dx = ∫   f dx ,            α  ...

Weiertrass Approximation Theorem

Weiertrass Approximation Theorem :   Statement :                If f is a real continuous function defined on a closed interval [a,b] then there exists a sequence of real polynomials {Pₙ} which converges uniformly to f(x) on [a,b] i.e lim Pₙ(x)=f(x)                                                    n-->∞ converges uniformly on [a,b] . Proof :        If a=b , the conclusion follows by taking  Pₙ(x) to be a constant polynomial , defined by   Pₙ(x) = f(a) for all n . We may thus assume that a<b . We next observe that a linear transformation                          x' = (x-a) / (b-a) is a continuous mapping of  [a,b] onto [1,0] . Accordingly , we assume without ...

Theorem For Uniform Convergence Of Power Series

Image
Theorem For Uniform Convergence Of Power Series :           T he power series Σ aₙxⁿ is uniformly convergent for |x| ≤P≤R where R is the radius of convergence . Proof :           Consider a number ρ' between ρ and R . Since , the series is convergent for |x| = ρ' , then by definition there exists k   independent of n so that                 |aₙPⁿ|< k ∀ n       ⇒ for |x| ≤ ρ , |aₙxⁿ| =                             |aₙρⁿ(x/ρ')ⁿ|<(ρ/ρ')ⁿ which is independent of x .        But the series is geometric series with common ratio ρ/ρ' < 1 , therefore the series            kΣ (ρ/ρ')ⁿ is convergent .       Thus , by Weirstrass's M_test the power series is uniformly convergen...
