I NTEGRALS THAT DEPEND ON A PARAMETER
1.1 Definition
Suppose that f ( x, y) is a function defined with x ∈ [ a, b] and y ∈ Y such that for each
y ∈ Y, fixed the function f ( x, y) is integrable in [ a, b].
Then
Zb
I (y) = f ( x, y)dx (2.1)
a
is a function that is defined on Y and called integral that depends on a parameter of the
function f ( x, y) on [ a, b].
1.2 Properties
1. The continuity and limitation under the integral sign
If function f ( x, y) is defined and continuous on the rectangle D = [ a, b] × [c, d] then
the integral I (y) is continuous on [c, d], i.e

Solution. Let [c, d] be any interval that contains the point y = 0. Then the function
f ( x, y) = x2 cos xy is continuous on the rectangle D = [0, 2] × [c, d]. Therefore the

Because lim f ( x, y) = lim ln x y sin

rectangle [0, 1] × [c, d] or [0, 1] × [−d, −c], 0 < c < d.
Because c can be arbitrarily small and d can be arbitrarily great so that I (y) is
continuous when y 6= 0.
• With y = 0.
Because f ( x ) > 0, ∀ x ∈ [0, 1] so that ∀m > 0 such that f ( x ) ≥ m > 0, ∀ x ∈ [0, 1].

Given a function R( x, y, z) which defines in an oriented surface S. Divide S into n sub-
surfaces ∆S1 , ∆S2 , . . . , ∆Sn . In each ∆Si take an arbitrary point Mi . Denote by Di the area
of the orthogonal projection of ∆Si in the plane Oxy, its sign is (+) or (−) if the outnormal

surface integral of the second kind of the function R( M ) in the surface S with respect to
two variables ( x, y). This integral is denoted by

R( x, y, z)dxdy
S
Similarly we define the surface integral of the second kind of the function P( x, y, z) with
respect to two variables (y, z) and of the function Q( x, y, z) with respect to two variables
(z, x ). In general, we consider the integral
ZZ
I= Pdydz + Qdzdx + Rdxdy
S
where S is a surface given by the equation x = x (y, z); (y, z) ∈ D ⊂ Oyz. We have
ZZ
I1 = ε P( x (y, z), y, z)dydz
D
where ε = 1 if the angle between the outnormal vector and the positive direction of
the axis Ox is an acute angle, and ε = −1 if the angle between the outnormal vector
and the positive direction of the axis Ox is an obtuse angle.

To prove uniform convergence, we often use the following criterion.

1. ∑ un ( x ) is uniformly convergent in X to a function S( x ) if and only if
n =1
|un ( x )| ≤ an , ∀n ≥ 1
∞ ∞
and the number series ∑ an is convergent, then the function series ∑ un ( x ) con-

For each x ∈ R, the corresponding number series is convergent due to Leibnitz’s crite-
ria. Denote by S( x ), x ∈ R the sum of the number series. For all x ∈ R, we have
1 1
|S( x ) − Sn ( x )| ≤ ≤

then

Hence lim max |Sn ( x ) − S( x )| = 0 and ∑ 2
converges uniformly in R.
n→∞ x ∈ X n =1 n + x
If {un }, n ∈ N, are continuous functions together with their derivatives in the interval

( a, b) and ∑ un is convergent to S( x ), ∑ u′n converges uniformly in ( a, b), then S( x ) is

Example 3.2. Find the Fourier series of the 2l periodic function f ( x ) that f ( x ) = x in
( a, a + 2l ).
f ( x ) is bounded and is an increasing function in every intervals ( a + 2kl, a + 2(k + 1)l ),
then it can be decomposed into Fourier series. We calculate the coefficients
Because the integral of a periodic function in every interval whose length is equal to
the periodic is the same then

88 Chapter 6. Series
Now we consider a function which satisfies one of the conditions in the first theorem in a
closed [ a, b]. To expand f ( x ) into a Fourier series, we construct a periodic function g( x )
whose periodic is larger or equal b − a such that
g( x ) = f ( x ), ∀ x ∈ [ a, b]
If g( x ) can be expanded into Fourier series then its sum coincides with g( x ), and also
f ( x ), at every continuous points in [ a, b]. If g( x ) is an odd function then its Fourier series
is sum of sine functions. If g( x ) is an even function then its Fourier series is sum of cosine
functions.
Example 3.3. Find the expansion of the function f ( x ) = x for 0 < x < 2 into Fourier
series of cosine functions and into Fourier series of sine functions.
To expand f ( x ) into Fourier series of cosine functions we construct an even function
g( x ), which is 4 periodic function and g( x ) = x for 0 < x < 2, l = 2. g( x ) is even then
