A simple approach to asymptotic expansions for Fourier integrals of singular functions

In this work, we are concerned with the derivation of full asymptotic expansions for Fourier integrals as s → ∞, where s is real positive, [a, b] is a finite interval, and the functions f(x) may have different types of algebraic and logarithmic singularities at x = a and x = b. This problem has been treated in the literature by techniques involving neutralizers and Mellin transforms. Here, we derive the relevant asymptotic expansions by a method that employs simpler and less sophisticated tools.

Integrability Properties of the Maximal Operator on Partial Sums of Fourier Series in Orlicz Spaces

Let S* (f be the majorant function of the partial sums of the trigonometric Fourier series of f. In this paper we consider the Orlicz space Lπ and give a generalization of Soria's result [S1]. Let π (t) be a concave function with some nice properties and . If there exists a positive constant a₀ < 1 such that then we have .

A method of Fourier series for solution of problems in piecewise inhomogeneous domains with rectilinear crack (screen)

In the framework of the theory of harmonic functions, potentials of steady state processes (heat conduction, filtration, or electrostatics) in the piecewise inhomogeneous plane separated by a rectilinear strongly permeable crack or by a weakly permeable screen into two half-planes with quadratic permeability functions are constructed. The motion is induced by given singular points of the potential (sources, sinks, etc.). Compact formulas that directly express potentials in these domains in terms of harmonic functions are obtained; the resulting functions map the set of harmonic functions to the set of potentials conserving the type of singularities.     

Strong means and oscillation of multiple Fourier series in multiplicative systems

In this paper we establish a general assertion relating the oscillation of the sequence of rectangular partial sums of a multiple Fourier series in a multiplicative system to the strong summability of this series. The systems of group generators are assumed to be uniformly bounded. Earlier these assertions were obtained by the author for the Walsh and Chrestenson series.Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 63, No. 4, pp. 607–616, April, 1998.This research was supported by the Russian Foundation for Basic Research under grant No. 95-01-00135.     

Concerning the multiplicators of Fourier series in the trigonometric system

In this paper we prove theorems on multiplicators of Fourier series inL _p, where the conditions depend on a parameterp. An example illustrating the importance of these conditions is constructed. Translated fromMatematicheskie Zametki, Vol. 63, No. 2, pp. 235–247, February, 1998.     

Fundamental solution and Fourier series in eigenfunctions of degenerate elliptic operator

We study the degenerate elliptic differential operator of the second order in the divergence form. The operator is assumed to be symmetric. The weight function which is describing the degeneration of the coefficients (or singularity) assumed to be in the Muckenhoupt class. We prove the uniform estimates for the fundamental solution of this operator and obtain the conditions which guarantee the absolute and uniform convergence of Fourier series in eigenfunctions. These results might be applied to the ground of Fourier method.     

On determination of jumps in terms of Abel-Poisson mean of Fourier series

In this paper, we generalize some well-known results (Theorems A, C, and D) by establishing two general results (Theorems 1 and 3). As special applications, we find that the (generalized) jumps of f can be determined by the higher order partial derivatives of its Abel-Poisson means. This is different from the determination of jumps by higher order derivatives of the partial sums. We also give some estimates of the higher order partial derivatives of the Abel-Poisson mean of an integrable function F at those points at which F is smooth.

A Way of Estimating the Convergence Rate of the Fourier Method for PDE of Hyperbolic Type

The Fourier expansion in eigenfunctions of a positive operator is studied with the help of abstract functions of this operator. The rate of convergence is estimated in terms of its eigenvalues, especially for uniform and absolute convergence. Some particular results are obtained for elliptic operators and hyperbolic equations.     

Crust density in bread baking: Mathematical modelling and numerical solutions

A model for the formation of a “crust” during bread baking is presented. The crust is the outermost part of the loaf where the final bread density is significantly higher than in the “crumb”, the interior of the loaf. The model is based on a collapse mechanism, whereby raised pressures due to thermal expansion and water evaporation squash bubbles in the bread as the dough sets and fractures; the latter process allows vapour within bubbles to escape.     

Analysis of pseudo-periodic chronological series with irregularly time-spaced data in view to their prediction. II. Fourier analysis

The problem originates from the necessity to predict luminosities of large-amplitude variable stars that are to be observed by the astronomical satellite HIPPARCOS. The data have a specific character: they are unequally time-spaced and can be missing during a long time in comparison to the pseudo-period. So the classical method of time-series analysis must be adapted and new methods are to be searched. In this paper we present a numerical solution derived from a Fourier analysis.     

A method of convolution of Fourier expansions as applied to solving boundary value problems with intersecting interface lines

An efficient method of construction of solutions to a set of boundary value problems with additional interface conditions, more complicated boundary conditions, and so on on the basis of known solutions to classical boundary value problems is proposed. The method is based on the representation of solutions to classical and more complicated problems in the form of expansions into Fourier series with subsequent reduction of one series to the other. As a result, formulas directly expressing solutions to more complicated problems in terms of solutions to classical problems are obtained. On the basis of the well-known solution to the Dirichlet problem on a half plane, solutions to boundary value problems with interface conditions (including generalized conditions of the type of a crack and a screen) on intersecting straight lines for boundary conditions of the first and the third kind are obtained.     

A Fourier method for computing the perturbation to a two‐dimensional electric potential by a conductor of arbitrary shape

Introducing an electric conductor into a region pervaded by an initial electric potential perturbs that potential by inducing a charge distribution on the conductor's surface, necessary to guarantee that the surface is an equipotential of the total potential. Some numerical method is required to compute the perturbation potential, when the conductor's shape does not admit a standard analytic solution. For two‐dimensional situations, a method is proposed for solving for the perturbation potential that involves expansion of the boundary perturbation potential and its normal derivative as truncated Fourier series. This boundary potential is known to within an additive constant from the requirement that its sum with the initial potential must be a constant. The standard representation theorem for the Dirichlet problem gives a consistency relation between the boundary function and its normal derivative, which here becomes a set of linear algebraic relations between Fourier series coefficients, with matrix entries found by appropriate applications of the fast Fourier transform. These are solved for the boundary derivative coefficients; at any point exterior to the conductor, the perturbation potential can then be evaluated from the two sets of Fourier coefficients, using further application of the fast Fourier transform. Examples are shown for two conductor shapes, with several initial potentials. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq 17: 673–683, 2001     

A Fourier Companion Matrix (Multiplication Matrix) with Real-Valued Elements: Finding the Roots of a Trigonometric Polynomial by Matrix Eigensolving

We show that the zeros of a trigonometric polynomial of degree $N$ with the usual $(2N +1)$ terms can be calculated by computing the eigenvalues of a matrix of dimension $2N$ with real-valued elements $M_{jk}$. This matrix $\vec{\vec{M}}$ is a multiplication matrix in the sense that, after first defining a vector $\vec{\phi}$ whose elements are the first $2N$ basis functions, $\vec{\vec{M}}\vec{\phi}$ = 2cos($t$)$\vec{\phi}$. This relationship is the eigenproblem; the zeros $t_{k}$ are the arccosine function of $\lambda_{k}/2$ where the $\lambda_{k}$ are the eigenvalues of $\vec{\vec {M}}$. We dub this the "Fourier Division Companion Matrix'', or FDCM for short, because it is derived using trigonometric polynomial division. We show through examples that the algorithm computes both real and complex-valued roots, even double roots, to near machine precision accuracy.
