Simply what tag do you put on a question if your stuck on creating a parituclar proof for a problem
proof explanation?
@ZION proof writing
one of those two or both if you wish
all right
Simply it's up

Q: Verifying the Indictor Function:$X_{[a,b]}$ can be expressed as a Fourier Series?

ZIONIn the text "Fourier Analysis: An Introduction" by Elias M. Stein and Rami Shakarchi. I'm having trouble attempting to verify the that $f(x)$ can be written as a Fourier Series in $Propostion \, \, (1.2).$ Note my initial approach to verify $Proposition \, (1.2)$ can be seen within, $Lemma \, \,...

Pooey you are faster than me
I can't help you with that question, sorry D:
Simply it's all right
Any recommendations on how to learn about fourier series? Its on my bucket list and I didn't get to it ytet
00:23
Simply pick up Stiein's FOurier Analysis book it's really good
Okay, thanks for the recommendation
I made up this function in an attempt to produce something that grows magnitudes beyond the fast growing hierarchy
and I can't even tell if it eventually computes
interesting is the function real or complex
Real. It takes in a computable ordinal and three whole numbers
what is a ordinal
Its like a name-tag for stuff. For example, it could be the number on a drawing ticket
it says "you are this and you lie here" kind of thing
00:26
ahh ok
and it comes in two (more, but these are the basic ones) forms: successor or limit ordinal
successor is like 5 and 4. 5 is the successor of 4
interesting
In general, α is a successor ordinal if α = ß + 1 for some ß
Then we have limit ordinals. I like to think of them as long lists
ω = sup {1,2,3,...}
This is the smallest non-finite ordinal, and it is defined as the limit of the naturals
If you look at my function, it has on the last line ß[n]. This means to take the list that defines ß and extract the n-th item on the list
For example, ω[3] = 3, since 3 is the third item on the list that defines ω
interesting
can you take the integral of an ordinal
No, ordinals are like 'whole numbers' in the sense that they are well-ordered and you can't go between an ordinal and its successor.
That is, 3.5 is not an ordinal.
00:32
ahhh ok
just looked it up on Wikipedia
Also, since I didn't clarify on the notation, when I raise a function to a power (second to bottom line), it means the following:
f^k(n;a,b) = f(f^(k-1)(n;a,b),a,b)
Basically, iterate the function in the first argument of the funciton
Simply this would make an interesting question on stackexchange
It would, but I already have a nine page PDF on this
Dang nine pages, on this function
Oh no, the last 5 pages are completely on how to make ordinals
particularly, if you put crazy large ordinals in... you get very large numbers
Purely for the goal of large numbers, we make functions like these
00:37
still 4 pages, that's mathematically heavy even for set theoretic stuff
nah. I don't think I went into much of the math
I explained what was necessary to make large numbers for a layman and a hint more
ahh ok
@ZION Oh yeah, don't take too much from the PDF before playing the game
Simply there could be some techniques from analysis that coudhelp with this
@ZION Actually, I find discrete things to be the most useful. And a tip? Don't over-think it.
00:45
all right, i'll just pull something simple
But i'll need some math breaktime
Simply lol
Simply but i'm happy my questions are getting positive response :)
@Benjamín Hello and welcome to my realm...
@ZION Always a good thing
01:17
@BrevanEllefsen Good day sir
01:29
Simply turns out my question was good after all got another upvote
feels good to learn and know your getting closer to answers
@ZION Haha, yup
Turns out it was a latex error and a grammer error that threw the question off

Simply what's so funny
that such things should hold us back against the tide of math
01:31
?
grammar and latex
tell me about it one latex error could mean -5 rep down on you stackexchange profile, but mathematical communication is important
@SimplyBeautifulArt Good day. How goest thou
Large number-ly as usual @BrevanEllefsen
01:34
Simply lol
Fantastic. Studying Ruby and SQL and PHP right now myself and then taking a Music History final and then figuring out how $\cot \theta$ comes up in this answer math.stackexchange.com/questions/2191510/…
:O
Moving pictures!

 This is the Realm of Simply Beautiful

Room for totally bored people to hang. Open discussions.
Large number business going down
Brevan that looks like a read :)
