Abstract

Numerical evidence from certain problems arising in optics seems to indicate Fourier-Bessel series which converge to zero in ( 1 − δ , 1 ] (1 - \delta ,1] also converge to zero in [ 1 , 1 + δ ) [1,1 + \delta ) , an interval which lies outside the range of orthogonality of the Bessel functions. Here we demonstrate this as a corollary of a result on series of functions which satisfy a general Sturm-Liouville equation.
