Trigonometric system
From Encyclopedia of Mathematics
One of the most important orthogonal systems of functions (cf. Orthogonal system). The functions of the trigonometric system,
![]() |
are orthogonal on any interval of the form , while the functions
![]() |
are orthonormal on this interval. The trigonometric system is complete and closed in the space for
, and also in the space
of continuous
-periodic functions. This system forms a basis in
for
. Series in the trigonometric system are studied in the theory of trigonometric series.
Alongside the trigonometric system, wide use is made of the complex trigonometric system . The functions of these systems are related to one another by the Euler formulas.
