Q1: Consider the function $f: \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ given by $f(x) = 2 + \cos(2x)$ as a $2 \pi$-periodic function. What is the correct representation of $f$ using exponentional functions?
A1: $f(x) $ $ = 2 e^{i 0 x} + \frac{1}{2} e^{i 2x} + \frac{1}{2} e^{-i 2x}$
A2: $f(x) $ $ = 2 + \frac{1}{2} e^{ix} + \frac{1}{2} e^{-ix}$
A3: $f(x) $ $ = \frac{1}{2} e^{i 2x} + e^{-i 2x}$
A4: $f(x) $ $ = \frac{1}{2} (e^{i 2x} + e^{-i 2x})$
Q2: Consider the folling subspaces of the complex trigonometric polynomials $\mathcal{P}_{2\pi-per}(\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{C})$. What is correct?
A1: $\mathrm{Span}\Big( x \mapsto 1, x \mapsto \sin(x),$ $ x \mapsto \cos(x) \Big)$ $= \mathrm{Span}\Big( x \mapsto e^{i 0 x}, $ $ x \mapsto e^{i x}, x \mapsto e^{- i x} \Big) $
A2: $\mathrm{Span}\Big( x \mapsto 1, x \mapsto \sin(x) \Big) $ $= \mathrm{Span}\Big( x \mapsto e^{i 0 x},$ $ x \mapsto e^{i x}, x \mapsto e^{- i x} \Big) $
A3: $\mathrm{Span}\Big( x \mapsto 1, x \mapsto \cos(x) \Big) $ $= \mathrm{Span}\Big( x \mapsto e^{i 0 x}, $ $ x \mapsto e^{i x}, x \mapsto e^{- i x} \Big) $
A4: $\mathrm{Span}\Big( x \mapsto \sin(x) \Big) $ $ = \mathrm{Span}\Big( x \mapsto e^{i x}, x \mapsto e^{- i x} \Big) $
Q3: Consider the function $f: (-\pi, \pi] \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ given by $f(x) = x^2$ as a $2 \pi$-periodic function. What is not correct for the Fourier series and its coefficients $a_k$, $b_k$ for this case?
A1: $c_k = 0$ for $k$ even.
A2: $c_0 = \frac{\pi^2}{3}$.
A3: $\mathcal{F}_1(f)(x) $ $ = \frac{1}{3} \pi^2 - 2 e^{ix} - 2 e^{-ix} $
A4: $c_k = \frac{2}{k^2} (-1)^k$ for $k \neq 0$.
