State and prove Theorem 28.6 and Corollary 28.8 for an arbitrary compact interval \([a, b]\).

Data from theorem 28.6

Theorem 28.6 (Weierstra) Polynomials are dense in C[0, 1] w.r.t. uniform convergence. Proof (S. N. Bernstein)

since the function p-p(1-p) attains its maximum at p=1/2. As u  C[0, 1] is uniformly continuous, u(x) - u(y) |

Data from corollary  28.8

Corollary 28.8 The monomials (t")neN, are complete in L= L ([0, 1], dt), that is, 0,11u(t)t" dt=0 for all

By Weierstra' approximation theorem there is a sequence of polynomials (Pn)neN which approximate u uniformly

This means that 0.11(x)x" dx=0 for all ne No and, by the first part of the proof, that U=0. Lebesgue'sThis does not quite work for the Hermite and Laguerre polynomials, which are defined on infinite intervals.

The Trigonometric System and Fourier Series We consider now L = L((-, ), B(-, ), =|(-)). As before we use dx

(28.2) follows easily from the classical result that for j, k = No and l, mN 0, if kj, I cos(jx) cos(kx) dx =
