Verify that the family {ek}k∈Z\left\{ e_{k}\right\}_{k \in \mathbf{Z}} as defined in the third bullet point of Example 8.51 is an orthonormal family in L2((−π,π])L^{2}((-\pi , \pi ]). The following formulas should help:

(sin⁡x)(cos⁡y)=sin⁡(x−y)+sin⁡(x+y)2(sin⁡x)(sin⁡y)=cos⁡(x−y)−cos⁡(x+y)2(cos⁡x)(cos⁡y)=cos⁡(x−y)+cos⁡(x+y)2 \begin{aligned} & (\sin x)(\cos y) = \frac{\sin (x-y)+\sin (x+y)}{2} \\ & (\sin x)(\sin y) = \frac{\cos (x-y)-\cos (x+y)}{2} \\ & (\cos x)(\cos y) = \frac{\cos (x-y)+\cos (x+y)}{2} \end{aligned}

Example 8.51 (third bullet point): for k∈Zk \in \mathbb {Z}, define ek:(−π,π]→Re_{k}: (-\pi , \pi ] \rightarrow \mathbb {R} by

ek(t)={1πsin⁡(kt)if k>0,12πif k=0,1πcos⁡(kt)if k<0. e_{k}(t) = \begin{cases} \frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi }} \sin (kt) & \text{if } k > 0, \\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{2\pi }} & \text{if } k = 0, \\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{\pi }} \cos (kt) & \text{if } k < 0.\end{cases}

Using Euler's formula

eix=cos⁡x+isin⁡x, e^{ix}=\cos x+i\sin x ,

prove that:

∫02πeinxe−imxdx={0,if m≠n,2π,if m=n \int _{0}^{2\pi }e^{inx}e^{-imx} dx= \begin{cases} 0, & \text{if }m\neq n , \\ 2\pi , & \text{if }m=n \end{cases}

(nn and mm are integers).

Prove that the system of functions en(x)=e2πinxe_n(x)=e^{2\pi inx}, n∈Zn\in \mathbb {Z}, is a Hilbert basis in L2((0,1))L^{2}\left({(0,1)}\right).

Prove that

∫02πeinxe−imxdx={0, if m≠n,2π, if m=n,m∈Z,n∈Z \int _{0}^{2 \pi } e^{i n x} e^{-i m x} d x = \begin{cases} 0, & \text{ if } m \neq n, \\ 2 \pi , & \text{ if } m = n, \end{cases} \quad m \in \mathbb {Z}, \quad n \in \mathbb {Z}

(If a function ff has the form f(x)=u(x)+iv(x)f(x) = u(x)+i v(x), where the functions u(x)u(x) and v(x)v(x) take real values and are integrable on the interval [a;b][a ; b], then by definition ∫abf(x)dx=∫abu(x)dx+i∫abv(x)dx\int_{a}^{b} f(x) d x = \int_{a}^{b} u(x) d x+i \int_{a}^{b} v(x) d x.)

⟨f,g⟩=∫−ππfg. \left\langle f, g \right\rangle = \int _{-\pi }^{\pi } f g.

The classical orthonormal basis for L2[0,2π]L^{2}[0,2 \pi ] with Lebesgue measure is the trigonometric system (19.17) (2π)−1,π−1/2sin⁡nx,π−1/2cos⁡nx,n=1,2,…(2 \pi )^{-1}, \quad \pi^{-1 / 2} \sin n x, \quad \pi^{-1 / 2} \cos n x, \quad n=1,2, \ldots

Prove orthonormality. Hint: Express the sines and cosines in terms of einx±e−inxe^{i n x} \pm e^{-i n x}, multiply out the products, and use the fact that ∫02πeimxdx\int_{0}^{2 \pi } e^{i m x} d x is 2π2 \pi or 0 as m=0m=0 or m≠0m \neq 0. (For the completeness of the trigonometric system, see Problem 26.26.)
