- TL;DR Summary
- Claim : "A periodic function ##f(u)## satisfying ##\int_{0}^{1}f(u)du=0## can generally expanded into a Fourier Series: ##f(u)=\sum_{m=1}^{\infty} [a_m \sin{(2\pi mu)}+b_m\cos{(2\pi mu)}]## "
This is written on Greiner's Classical Mechanics when solving a Tautochrone problem.
Firstly,I don’t understand why we didn’t use the term ##m=0##
and Sencondly, how the integrand helps us to fulfill the Dirichlet conditions. That means,how do we know that the period is 1?Thanks
