Study Notes
Fourier Series
- A function with period 2π is cos x.
- The Fourier coefficient
a_0
is given by1/π ∫f(x) dx
between the limits c and c+2π. - If
f(x) = -x
for-π < x < 0
, thena_0 = - (π^2)/2
.
Even and Odd Functions
- A function
f(x)
is even iff(-x) = f(x)
. - A function
f(x)
is odd iff(-x) = -f(x)
. - Examples of odd functions:
sin x
,x^3
. - An even function has
a_0 = 0
and an odd function hasa_0 = 0
.
Fourier Expansion
- The Fourier series of
f(x)
is given bya_0 /2 + ∑ (an cos nx + bn sin nx)
. - If
f(x)
is even, the Fourier expansion contains no sine terms. - If
f(x)
is odd, the Fourier expansion contains no cosine terms. - The Fourier expansion of an even function is of the form
a_0 /2 + ∑ an cos nx
. - The Fourier expansion of an odd function is of the form
∑ bn sin nx
.
Dirichlet Conditions
- A function
f(x)
has a finite number of maxima and minima in an interval. - A function
f(x)
has a finite number of discontinuities in an interval.
Fourier Coefficients
-
a_0
is given by1/π ∫f(x) dx
between the limits-a
toa
iff(x)
is even. -
a_n
is given by2/l ∫f(x) sin(nπx/l) dx
iff(x)
is even. -
b_n
is given by2/l ∫f(x) cos(nπx/l) dx
iff(x)
is odd. - If
f(x)
is even, thena_0
is not zero, anda_n
is zero. - If
f(x)
is odd, thena_0
is zero, andb_n
is not zero.
