CORRECTED FOURIER SERIES AND ITS APPLICATION TO FUNCTION APPROXIMATION QING-HUA ZHANG, SHUIMING CHEN, AND YUANYUAN QU Received 30 November 2003 and in revised form 9 June 2004 Any quasismooth function f (x ) in a finite interval [0,x0 ], which has only a finite number of finite discontinuities and has only a finite number of extremes, can be approximated by a uniformly convergent Fourier series and a correction function. The correction func- tion consists of algebraic polynomials and Heaviside step functions and is required by the aperiodicity at the endpoints (i.e., f (0) = f (x )) and the finite discontinuities in between. 0 The uniformly convergent Fourier series and the correction function are collectively re- ferred to as the corrected Fourier series. We prove that in order for the mth derivative of the Fourier series to be uniformly convergent, the order of the polynomial need not ex- ceed (m + 1). In other words, including the no-more-than-(m + 1) polynomial has elimi- nated the Gibbs phenomenon of the Fourier series until its mth derivative. The corrected Fourier series is then applied to function approximation; the procedures to determine the coefficients of the corrected Fourier series are illustrated in detail using examples. 1. Introduction The theory about the function approximation of finite functions in a finite interval by a Fourier series emerged as early as the nineteenth century [2]. In particular, for any quasismooth function in [0,x0 ], which is referred to as the single-valued finite function f (x ) that has only a finite number of finite discontinuities as well as a finite number of maxima and minima in the interval [0,x0 ], one could obtain the following Fourier series (partial sum): 2nπ iα x
