Abstract

Let (a, b) be a bounded interval and let f be a complex function defined on (a, b). A priori, this function does not have a Fourier series expansion, since this notion has been defined only for functions that are defined and periodic on all of ℝ. However, f can be extended periodically, with period ba, to all of R as in Figure 6.1.
