Mathematics 355, Fall 2011 Fourier Series Formulas

1. The Fourier series of a function f dened on the interval [p, p] is given by f (x) = 1 p
p

a0 + 2

an cos
n=1 p

n n x + bn sin x , p p f (x) sin n x dx. p

where an =

f (x) cos
p

n 1 x dx, and bn = p p

The function dened by the series is periodic of period 2p.

2. If f is a function only dened on [0, p], then the half-range expansions are a0 + 2

a. Cosine series: f (x) =

an cos
n=1

n 2 x, where an = p p

f (x) cos
0

n x dx. p

The function dened by the series is even and periodic of period 2p.

b. Sine series: f (x) =


n=1

bn sin

n 2 x, where bn = p p

f (x) sin
0

n x dx. p

The function dened by the series is odd and periodic of period 2p. a0 + 2

c. Fourier series: f (x) = an = 2 p


p

an cos
n=1

2n 2n x + bn sin x , where p p
p

f (x) cos
0

2n 2 x dx, and bn = p p

f (x) sin
0

2n x dx. p

The function dened by the series is periodic of period p.
