Fourier sine integral of e^{-x}cos x
Short answer
B(ω)=∫₀^∞ e^{-v} cos v sin ωv dv = ω³/(ω⁴+4). The sine integral is e^{-x} cos x = (2/π)∫₀^∞ ω³ sin ωx/(ω⁴+4) dω. Multiply by π/2 to obtain ∫₀^∞ ω³ sin ωx/(ω⁴+4) dω = (π/2)e^{-x} cos x.
Obtain the Fourier sine integral representation of e^{-x} cos x and hence show that ∫₀^∞ ω³ sin ωx/(ω⁴ + 4) dω = (π/2) e^{-x} cos x, x > 0.
Fourier sine integral. For f defined on x > 0:
f(x) = (2/π) ∫₀^∞ B(ω) sin ωx dω , where B(ω) = ∫₀^∞ f(v) sin ωv dv.
Step 1: find B(ω) for f(v) = e^{−v} cos v.
Use sin ωv cos v = ½[sin (ω + 1)v + sin (ω − 1)v] and ∫₀^∞ e^{−v} sin bv dv = b/(1 + b²):
B(ω) = ½ [ (ω + 1)/(1 + (ω + 1)²) + (ω − 1)/(1 + (ω − 1)²) ]
= ½ [ (ω + 1)/(ω² + 2ω + 2) + (ω − 1)/(ω² − 2ω + 2) ]
Combine over the common denominator (ω² + 2ω + 2)(ω² − 2ω + 2) = ω⁴ + 4:
numerator = (ω + 1)(ω² − 2ω + 2) + (ω − 1)(ω² + 2ω + 2) = (ω³ − ω² + 2) + (ω³ + ω² − 2) = 2ω³
B(ω) = ω³/(ω⁴ + 4)
Step 2: sine integral representation.
e^{−x} cos x = (2/π) ∫₀^∞ ω³ sin ωx /(ω⁴ + 4) dω, x > 0
Step 3: deduction. Multiplying by π/2:
∫₀^∞ ω³ sin ωx /(ω⁴ + 4) dω = (π/2) e^{−x} cos x, x > 0 ∎
(Numerical check of B(ω) at ω = 2.1: the integral gives 0.39496 = ω³/(ω⁴ + 4).)
