Introduction It is well-known that there are some differences between power series expansion and Fourier trigonometric expansion. For example, the infinite differentiability of a function does not itself assure that its power series will converge to that function, whereas mere periodicity and a little smoothness are enough to have the Fourier trigonometric series converge uniformly to the function [3]. Further, the terms of the trigonometric series expansion describe simple harmonic motion so that the function may be considered as a linear combination of harmonic motions, whereas the terms of a power series have no such physical interpretation. Beyond the fact that both Taylor and Fourier series are infinite, it is pointed out in [3] that there are some similarities between these two series too. Indeed, an expansion of a real function in terms of a series of ultraspherical polynomials [12] is found in [3] that contains only cosine type of Fourier series and power series as special limiting cases. 1 In this paper, we follow a new approach to introduce a mixed type of power and trigonometric series, which extends both Taylor and Fourier series expansions simultaneously. We then focus on a special case to define two trigonometric types of hypergeometric series that cover many ordinary hypergeometric series together with Fourier trigonometric series. Some illustrative examples are given in this sense and three new integral formulas are derived. In the sequel, we obtain some important properties of the two introduced series such as integral representations and several classes of partial differential equations. Let us start our treatment with defining two bivariate series as k k Cr (, ) ark cos( k ) and Sr (, ) ark sin( k ) , k 0 k 0 in which , {}akk0 are known numbers and r, are real variables. cos( k 1) sin( k 1) By noting that lim and lim are not known, according to k cos( k ) k sin( k ) Abel’s theorem [5], the convergence of Cr (, ) and Sr (, ) would directly depend on k the convergence radius of ark because k0 cos( k ) 1(k and ). sin( k ) k This means that if ark is convergent in a specific region, Cr (, ) and Sr (, ) are k0 also convergent in that region for any [,], which is the standard orthogonality interval of the Fourier trigonometric expansion. f ()k ()a Now, assume that f is a successively differentiable function at x a . For a k k ! we can obtain the explicit values of the two series Cr (, ) and Sr (, ) in terms of the given function f . For this purpose, let zxiye i (1) i be a complex y number in which xy22, arctan and xy, and then suppose that x f :2 can be expanded as follows k f ()zcz k , (1) k 0 where {}ckk0 are all pre-determined numbers. Since zzkk kikikk()2cos e e k, and zzkk 2sin k k , i it is directly concluded from (1) that zfz() zfz () Imzfz ( ) zfz ( ) Im( ) 0, . (2) i 2 In other words, zfz() zfz () and (()())/zfz zfz i and any linear combination of them are always real functions if (1) holds. By noting (2), let us now define a very general bivariate real function as A Hr(,;,;,) AB eiiii fa ( re ) e fa ( re ) 2 (3) B egbreeiiii() gbre ( ), 2i where f , g are analytic functions at respectively ra and rb , , , A, B are known constants and r, are real variables. Since k dHr(,;,;,) AB ()kk () k Af()cos( a k ) Bg ()sin( b k ), dr r0 the Taylor expansion of the function (3) with respect to the variable r at r 0 is as AB eiiii f() a re e f ( a re ) e iiii g () b re e g ( b re ) 22i (4) r k Af()kk()cos( a k ) Bg () ()sin( b k ) . k 0 k! Clearly (4) generates the same as Taylor expansion for 0 . Also, in terms of the ** variable , it is reduced to a Fourier series for 0 as akbkkkcos sin k 0 r k r k where aAfa*() k () and bBgb*() k () . For B 0 and A 0 , formula (4) is k k! k k! finally reduced to the following forms 1 r k efareeiiii() fare ( ) f() k ()cos() a k , (5) 2!k 0 k and 1 r k efareeiiii() fare ( ) f() k ()sin() a k . (6) 2!ikk 0 As was pointed out, relation (4) is valid only in the convergence region of r for any , and [,]. Furthermore the initial conditions k k *()k r *()k r limaAk lim fa ( ) 0 and limbBk lim gb ( ) 0 , kk k! kk k! must be simultaneously satisfied. In this case, we automatically have * * limakk cos( ) 0 and limbkk sin( ) 0 . (7) k k 3 * By accepting the conditions (7), the convergence of two series akk cos( ) and k 0 * bkk sin( ) would directly depend on the convergence radius of the Taylor k 0 expansions corresponding to f and g at x a and x b . Example 1. If f (ze ) z and gz( ) ln( z 1) at ab 0 , then we have 1 efreeii( ) i fre ( i ) e rcos cos( r sin ), 2 (8) 1 efreeii( ) i fre ( i ) e rcos sin( r sin ), 2i and 1cossinr eii g( re ) e i g ( re i ) ln( r2 1 2 r cos ) sin arctan ( ), 22 1cos r 1sinsinr eii g( re ) e i g ( re i ) ln( r2 1 2 r cos ) cos arctan ( ). 22ir 1cos (9) Now, choosing AB 1 in (4) gives r k cos(kk ) ( 1)k ( 1)! sin( k ) k! k 0 (10) sinr sin err cos cos( sin ) ln( rr 2 1 2 cos ) cos arctan ( ), 21cos r r k which is a particular case of (4). On the other hand, since lim 0 for any r and k k! r k lim( 1)k 1 0 for r [ 1,1], relation (10) is valid only for r [ 1,1] [ 1,1] , k k [,] and , . Another example, derived from (8) and (9), may be considered as r k sin(kk ) ( 1)k ( 1)!cos( k ) k! k 0 cosr sin err cos sin( sin ) ln( rr 2 1 2 cos ) sin arctan ( ), 21cos r which is again valid for r [1,1], [,] and , . 1.1. Three new integral formulae derived by the expansion (4) It is in general known that {cos( k ) }k0 and {sin( k ) }k1 constitute two biorthogonal sequences [5,8] for 0 and 1/ 2 on [ , ] so that we have 4 0(j k ), cosjkd cos 2 cos jkd cos 0 jk, (),j k sinjkd sin 2 sin jkd sin , 0 jk, sinjkd cos 0, jk , , and 11 11 cos(jkdjkd ) cos( ) 2 cos( ) cos( ) j,k , 220 22 11 11 sin(jkdjkd ) sin( ) 2 sin( ) sin( )jk, , (11) 220 22 11 sin(jkdjk ) cos( ) 0, , , 22 where [ , ] can be changed to any other arbitrary interval by a simple linear transform. By referring to expansion (4), now define the finite sequence l j ()jj () r TAfajBgbjl () ()cos( ) ()sin( ) , j0 j! and assume that there exists a real function t( ) ( independent of l ) such that Ttl () () . Since efareeiiii() fare ( ) and egbreeiiii() gbre ( ), are respectively even and odd functions in , using the dominated convergence theorem [5] would yield the following integral formulae 1 efareeiiii() fare ( )cos kd 2 jj ()jjrr () f ()ajkdfajkd cos( ) cos () cos( ) cos jj00jj!! r k fa()k () ( k {0}), ()!k (12) j 1 r f ()()areii fare d f() j ()cos a j d 00 2!j0 j (13) j r fa()j () cos jd fa (), 0 j0 j! and 5 1 egbreeiiii() gbre ( )sin kd 2i jj ()jjrr () gb( )sin( j ) sin kd gb ( ) sin( j ) sin kd jj00jj!! r k gb()k () ( k {0}).

Corollary 1. If m {0} and n {1 / 2} except the case mn 0 , then three following integral formulae would be totally derived from relations (12) – (16): m 1 r efareeni() i ni fare ( i )cos() mnd f() m (), a 0 22!m 1 fa()() reii fa re d fa (), 0 2 m 1 r efareeni() i ni fare ( i )sin() mnd f() m ().

  • Blissard's Trigonometric Series with Closed-Form Sums
    BLISSARD’S TRIGONOMETRIC SERIES WITH CLOSED-FORM SUMS JACQUES GELINAS´ Abstract. This is a summary and verification of an elementary note written by John Blissard in 1862 for the Messenger of Mathematics. A general method of discovering trigonometric series having a closed-form sum is explained and illustrated with examples. We complete some state- ments and add references, using the summation symbol and Blissard’s own (umbral) representative notation for a more concise presentation than the original. More examples are also provided. 1. Historical examples Blissard’s well structured note [3] starts by recalling four trigonometric series which “mathemati- cal writers have exhibited as results of the differential and integral calculus” (A, B, C, G in the table below). Many such formulas had indeed been worked out by Daniel Bernoulli, Euler and Fourier. More examples can be found in 19th century textbooks and articles on calculus, in 20th century treatises on infinite series [21, 10, 19, 17] or on Fourier series [12, 23], and in mathematical tables [18, 22, 16, 11]. G.H. Hardy motivated the derivation of some simple formulas as follows [17, p. 2]. We can first agree that the sum of a geometric series 1+ x + x2 + ... with ratio x is s =1/(1 − x) because this is true when the series converges for |x| < 1, and “it would be very inconvenient if the formula varied in different cases”; moreover, “we should expect the sum s to satisfy the equation s = 1+ sx”. With x = eiθ, we obtain immediately a number of trigonometric series by separating the real and imaginary parts, by setting θ = 0, by differentiating, or by integrating [14, §13 ].

But how do you add infinitely many numbers together ? In this lecture we answer this question, which is part of the theory of infinite sequences and series. An important application of this theory is a method for representing a known differentiable function f (x) as an infinite sum of powers of x, so it looks like a "polynomial with infinitely many terms." Dr. Kamlesh Jangid (RTU Kota) Series 3 / 19 Series Definition A sequence of real numbers is a function from the set N of natural numbers to the set R of real numbers. If f : N ! R is a sequence, and if an = f (n) for n 2 N, then we write the sequence f as fang. A sequence of real numbers is also called a real sequence. Example (i) fang with an = 1 for all n 2 N-a constant sequence. n−1 1 2 (ii) fang = f n g = f0; 2 ; 3 ; · · · g; n+1 1 1 1 (iii) fang = f(−1) n g = f1; − 2 ; 3 ; · · · g.

  • Symmetric Integrals and Trigonometric Series
    SYMMETRIC INTEGRALS AND TRIGONOMETRIC SERIES George E. Cross and Brian S. Thomson 1 Introduction The first example of a convergent trigonometric series that cannot be ex- pressed in Fourier form is due to Fatou. The series ∞ sin nx (1) log(n + 1) nX=1 converges everywhere to a function that is not Lebesgue, or even Perron, integrable. It follows that the series (1) cannot be represented in Fourier form using the Lebesgue or Perron integrals. In fact this example is part of a whole class of examples as Denjoy [22, pp. 42–44] points out: if bn 0 ∞ ց and n=1 bn/n = + then the sum of the everywhere convergent series ∞ ∞ n=1Pbn sin nx is not Perron integrable. P The problem, suggested by these examples, of defining an integral so that the sum function f(x) of the convergent or summable trigonometric series ∞ (2) a0/2+ (an cos nx + bn sin nx) nX=1 is integrable and so that the coefficients, an and bn, can be written as Fourier coefficients of the function f has received considerable attention in the lit- erature (cf. [10], [11], [21], [22], [26], [32], [34], [37], [44] and [45].) For an excellent survey of the literature prior to 1955 see [27]; [28] is also useful.

Basic definitions and examples are given in Section 1. In Section 2 we prove the fundamental Riemann-Lebesgue lemma and discuss the Fourier series from the mapping point of view. Pointwise and uniform convergence of the Fourier series of a function to the function itself under various regularity assumptions are studied in Section 3. In Section 1.5 we establish the L2-convergence of the Fourier series without any additional regularity assumption. There are two applications. In Section 1.4 it is shown that every continuous function can be approximated by polynomials in a uniform manner. In Section 1.6 a proof of the classical isoperimetric problem for plane curves is presented. 1.1 Definition and Examples The concept of series of functions and their pointwise and uniform convergence were discussed in Mathematical Analysis II. Power series and trigonometric series are the most important classes of series of functions. We learned power series in Mathematical Analysis II and now we discuss Fourier series.

  • Note on the Lerch Zeta Function
    Pacific Journal of Mathematics NOTE ON THE LERCH ZETA FUNCTION F. OBERHETTINGER Vol. 6, No. 1 November 1956 NOTE ON THE LERCH ZETA FUNCTION F. OBERHETTINGER l Introduction, The functional equation for the Riemann zeta function and Hurwitz's series were derived by a formal application of Poisson's summation formula in some previous papers [9], [10], [12, p. 17]. The results are correct although obtained by equating two infinite series whose regions of convergence exclude each other. It was shown later that this difficulty can be overcome if a generalized form of Poisson's formula is used [6]. It is the purpose of this note to show that the application of Poisson's summation formula in its ordinary form to the more general case of Lerch's zeta function [1], [2], [3], [5, pp. 27-30], [8] does not present the difficulties with respect to convergence which arise in its special cases. Thus a very simple and direct method for developing the theory of this function can be given. It may be noted that Hurwitz's series can be obtained immediately upon specializing one of the parameters, (cf. also [1]). 2. Lerch's zeta function Φ(z, s, v) is usually defined by the power series (la) Φ(z,8,v)= Σzm(v + mys \z\<l, vφO, -1, -2, . m=0 Equivalent to this is the integral representation [5, pp. 27-30] (lb) Φ(z, β, v)=— v~s + \Γ(v 2 Jo + 2 ("sin ( Jo \ \z\<\, which can be written as V]os (1c) Φ(z, 8, v)=—v- / iv- A- τΐ :-Γ(l-s)(logi) -^-V-5 Σ V; r^4- 4- 2 f °° sin f s tan-1-^— t log ^Vv2 4- t2)-sIZ(eZiίt - iyιdt Jo V v / upon replacing the first integral on the right of (lb) by the second and Received February 11, 1954.

  • INFINITE SERIES 1. Introduction the Two Basic Concepts of Calculus
    INFINITE SERIES KEITH CONRAD 1. Introduction The two basic concepts of calculus, differentiation and integration, are defined in terms of limits (Newton quotients and Riemann sums). In addition to these is a third fundamental limit process: infinite series. The label series is just another name for a sum. An infinite series is a \sum" with infinitely many terms, such as 1 1 1 1 (1.1) 1 + + + + ··· + + ··· : 4 9 16 n2 The idea of an infinite series is familiar from decimal expansions, for instance the expansion π = 3:14159265358979::: can be written as 1 4 1 5 9 2 6 5 3 5 8 π = 3 + + + + + + + + + + + + ··· ; 10 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109 1010 1011 so π is an “infinite sum" of fractions. Decimal expansions like this show that an infinite series is not a paradoxical idea, although it may not be clear how to deal with non-decimal infinite series like (1.1) at the moment. Infinite series provide two conceptual insights into the nature of the basic functions met in high school (rational functions, trigonometric and inverse trigonometric functions, exponential and logarithmic functions). First of all, these functions can be expressed in terms of infinite series, and in this way all these functions can be approximated by polynomials, which are the simplest kinds of functions. That simpler functions can be used as approximations to more complicated functions lies behind the method which calculators and computers use to calculate approximate values of functions. The second insight we will have using infinite series is the close relationship between functions which seem at first to be quite different, such as exponential and trigonometric functions.

  • Summable Trigonometric Series
    Pacific Journal of Mathematics SUMMABLE TRIGONOMETRIC SERIES RALPH D. JAMES Vol. 6, No. 1 November 1956 SUMMABLE TRIGONOMETRIC SERIES R. D. JAMES l Introduction. One of the problems in the theory of trigono- metric series in the form (1.1) -—OD + Σ {an cos nx + bn sin nx) = Σ «n(aθ is that of suitably defining a process of integration such that, if the series (1.1) converges to a function f(x), then f(x) is integrable and the coefficients anf bn are given in Fourier form. The problem has been solved by Denjoy [3], Verblunsky [10], Marcinkiewicz and Zygmund [8], Burkill [1], [2], and James [6]. In Verblunsky's paper and in BurkilΓs first paper, additional hypotheses other than the convergence of (1.1) were made, and in all the papers some modification of the form of the Fourier formulas was necessary: An extension of the problem is to consider series that are summable (C, k), &2>1. This has been solved by Wolf [11] when the sum func- tion is Perron integrable. The problem of defining a process of inte- gration which may be applied to any series summable (C, k) may be solved if an additional condition involving the conjugate series a (1.2) Σ ( n sin nx - bn cos nx) = - is imposed. With this extra condition, it is proved, in § 2, that the formal product of cos px or sin px and a series summable (C, k) to f(x) is also summable (C, k) to f{x)c,o$px or /(a?) sin pa:.

  • On the Class of Limits of Lacunary Trigonometric Series
    On the class of limits of lacunary trigonometric series Christoph Aistleitner∗ Abstract Let (nk)k≥1 be a lacunary sequence of positive integers, i.e. a sequence satisfying 1 n +1/n >q> 1, k 1, and let f be a “nice” 1-periodic function with f(x) dx = 0. k k ≥ 0 Then the probabilistic behavior of the system (f(n x)) ≥1 is very similar to the behavior k k R of sequences of i.i.d. random variables. For example, Erd˝os and G´al proved in 1955 the following law of the iterated logarithm (LIL) for f(x) = cos2πx and lacunary (nk)k≥1: N −1/2 lim sup(2N log log N) f(nkx)= f 2 (1) N→∞ =1 k k Xk 1/2 1 2 for almost all x (0, 1), where f 2 = f(x) dx is the standard deviation of ∈ k k 0 the random variables f(nkx). If (nk)k≥1hasR certain number-theoretic properties (e.g. n +1/n ), a similar LIL holds for a large class of functions f, and the constant on k k → ∞ the right-hand side is always f 2. For general lacunary (nk)k≥1 this is not necessarily true: Erd˝os and Fortet constructedk k an example of a trigonometric polynomial f and a lacunary sequence (nk)k≥1, such that the lim sup in the LIL (1) is not equal to f 2 and not even a constant a.e. In this paper show that the class of possible functionsk k on the right-hand side of (1) can be very large: we give an example of a trigonometric polynomial f, such that for any function g(x) with sufficiently small Fourier coefficients there exists 2 a lacunary sequence (nk)k≥1 such that (1) holds with f 2 + g(x) instead of f 2 on the right-hand side.

    1 Taylor-Maclaurin Series 2 00 2 Writing x = x0 + n4x; x1 = (n − 1)4x; ::, we get, (4y0) = y0 (4x) ::: and letting n ! 1, a leap of logic reduces the interpolation formula to: 1 y = y + (x − x )y0 + (x − x )2 y00 + ::: 0 0 0 0 2! 0 Definition 1.0.1. A function f is said to be an Cn function on (a; b) if f is n-times differentiable and the nth derivative f (n) is continuous on (a; b) and f is said to belong to C1 if every derivative of f exists (and is continuous) on (a; b). Taylor’s Formula: Suppose f belongs to C1 on (−R; R). Then for every n 2 N, and x 2 (−R; R) we have: 1 1 f(x) = f(0) + f 0(0)x + f (2)(0) x2 + ::: + f (n)(0) xn + R (x) 2! n! n f is said to be analytic at 0 if the remainder Rn(x) ! 0 as n ! 1. There are two standard forms for the remainder. 1. Integral form: Z x 1 (n+1) n Rn(x) = f (t)(x − t) dt n! 0 Proof. Integrating by parts, 1 Z x 1 1 Z x f (n+1)(t)(x − t)ndt = − f (n)(0)xn + f (n)(t)(x − t)n−1dt n! 0 n! (n − 1)! 0 Proof is completed by induction on n on observing that the result holds for n = 0 by the Funda- mental theorem of Calculus. 2. Lagrange’s form: There exists c 2 (0; x) such that: 1 R (x) = f (n+1)(c)xn+1 n (n + 1)! This form is easily derived from the integral form using intermediate value theorem of integral calculus.
