Abstract

We define a kind of spectral series to filter off completely the Gibbs phenomenon without overshooting and distortional approximation near a point of discontinuity. The construction of this series is based on the method of adding the Fourier coefficients of a Heaviside function to the given Fourier partial sums. More precisely, we prove the uniform convergence of the proposed series on the class of piecewise smooth functions. Also, we attach two numerical examples which illustrate the uniform convergence of the suggested series in comparison with the Fourier partial sums.
