What is the Fourier series for $\{a\}\{b\}$, i.e. the product of the fractional parts of $a$ and $b$. I know what the Fourier series looks like for a single value of either $a$ or $b$, but I want to know what it is when the two are multiplied together.
Fourier series of the fractional part

0What kind of simplification are you looking for? and do you have any reason to think the kind of simplification you are looking for actually exists? – 2012-12-04

If $0 \leq \{a\} < 1$ and $0 \leq \{b\} < 1$, then $0 \leq \{a\}\{b\} < 1$. So the Fourier series of the product would look just like the Fourier series of $\{c\}$ of some real number $c$.

0@WimC Just define $\{c\} = \{a\}\{b\}$, which is the fractional part of some real number $c$. – 2012-12-03
