Fourier cosine coefficients of a sine mode
ID: fourier-cosine-coefficients-of-a-sine-mode
For a positive integer , take on and form its half-range Fourier cosine series. The product-to-sum identity givesThus for opposite parity and zero for the same parity. The exceptional integral is zero. The constant term is , not . These coefficients represent the even periodic extension, not the original sine wave on negative arguments. Their quadratic decay gives absolute convergence.
