What does this mean in plain English?

As Archimedes would have said, “Give me the value of the function at a single point, and the value of all (first, second, and so on) its derivatives at that single point, and I can give you the value of the function at any other point”

Example

What is periodic function?

In mathematics, a periodic function is a function that repeats its values in regular intervals or periods. The most important examples are the trigonometric functions, which repeat over intervals of 2π radians. Periodic functions are used throughout science to describe oscillations, waves, and other phenomena that exhibit periodicity. Any function which is not periodic is called aperiodic.

The Problem

we are trying to approximate a function f(x) by another function gn(x) which consists of a sum over N orthogonal functions F(x) weighted by some coefficients an.

Strategy

... and we are looking for optimal functions in a least squares (l2) sense ...

... a good choice for the basis functions F(x) are orthogonal functions. What are orthogonal functions? Two functions f and g are said to be

orthogonal in the interval [a,b] if

How is this related to the more conceivable concept of orthogonal vectors? Let us look at the original definition of integrals:

Orthogonal Functions

... where x0=a and xN=b, and xi-xi-1=x ...If we interpret f(xi) and g(xi) as the ith components of an N component vector,

then this sum corresponds directly to a scalar product of vectors. The vanishing of the scalar product is the condition for orthogonality of vectors (or functions).

Importance of Fourier Series

• Any filtering … low-, high-, bandpass• Generation of random media• Data analysis for periodic contributions • Tidal forcing• Earth’s rotation• Electromagnetic noise• Day-night variations

• Pseudospectral methods for function approximation and derivatives

As description for seismic source signals in time and space, e.g., with Mij the source moment tensor

As input to any linear system -> response Function, Green’s function
