Abstract

For certain weight functions p(t) and q(t), upper bounds are obtained for the difference between partial sums of Fourier series of a function/ with respect to the systems σp and σq of polynomials orthogonal on [−1, 1] (a comparison theorem is incidentally proved for the systems σp and σq). By using these upper bounds, known asymptotic expressions for the Lebesgue function, and an upper bound (forf ε Wr Hω) of the remainder in a Fourier-Chebyshev series, we establish corresponding results for Fourier series with respect to a system σp.
