    1. A Define the concepts of linear independence and orthonormality in a Hilbert

    space. LetL2[0, 1] be the Hilbert space L2[0, 1] of square-integrable functions

    f : [0, 1] Cwith the scalar product

    (f, g) =

    10

    f(x) g(x) dx .

    Prove that if the family of functions {ek}kZ is orthonormal in L2[0, 1], then

    it must be linearly independent. Give an example to show that the converse

    is not necessarily true. [15 marks]

    B Give an example of an orthonormal basis for the n-dimensional space Cn.

    Show thatL2[0, 1] is infinite-dimensional. [5 marks]

    C Show that the function f(x) = ex2012

    belongs to the Schwartz class S(R).Is the function f(x) =ex

    2013

    in the Schwartz class S(R)? [5 marks]

    2. A Prove that the family {e4ikx}kZ is orthonormal in L2[0, 1]. [5 marks]

    B Find a function f L2[0, 1] with fL2[0,1] = 1 that is orthogonal to the

    entire family{e4ikx}kZ. [5 marks]

    C LetMbe the set of all functions in L2[0, 1] that are orthogonal to the entire

    family {e4ikx}kZ. Prove that M is a linear subspace of the vector space

    L2[0, 1]. Show that it is infinite-dimensional. [15 marks]

    [You may use Bessels inequality without proving it.]

    C Compute the Fourier coefficients F(k) =

    10

    F(x) e2ikx dx, k Z, of the

    functionF : [0, 1] C defined byF(x) =x forx [0, 1/2] andF(x) = 1x

    4. A Letf : R C be a continuously differentiable function that is periodic with

    period 1. If

    f(k) =

    10

    f(x) e2ikx dx, k Z,

    are its Fourier coefficients, prove that lim|k|

    {|k f(k)|}= 0. [8 marks]

    B Show that for the function

    f0(x) =

    1, 0 x
