This seemingly not-so-harsh math problem has me stumped. I tried solving it every free minute I had this weekend but no trails or any combination of them led me anywhere happy. The little ba$tard goes as follow:
"Consider f: [-\pi,\pi)\rightarrow \mathbb{R} a function (n-1) times continuously differentiable such that f^{(n-1)}(x) is differentiable and continuous except maybe at a finite number of points. If |f^{(n)}(x)|\leq M except maybe at the points of discontinuity, show that the coefficients of the development of f in a complex Fourier serie satisfy
|c_r|\leq M/r^n, \ \forall r \neq 0[/itex]<br /> <br /> Edit: |f^{(n-1)}(x)|\leq M --> |f^{(n)}(x)|\leq M
