Fourier Series of Discontinuous Functions: A Detailed Explanation | Lecture 4

In this video, we explore one of the most fascinating aspects of Fourier series: representing discontinuous functions. While Fourier series are commonly used to decompose smooth, continuous functions, they can also be applied to functions with jumps or discontinuities.

Join me as we delve into:

- The challenges of representing discontinuous functions using Fourier series
- The concept of convergence and Gibbs phenomenon
- How to compute the Fourier coefficients for discontinuous functions
- Visualizations and examples of Fourier series approximations for piecewise functions, square waves, and other discontinuous functions
- Tips for handling convergence issues and improving approximation accuracy
