Lidstone Series

In mathematics, certain types of entire functions can be expressed as a certain polynomial expansion known as the Lidstone series. Let f(z) be an entire function of exponential type less than (N + 1)π, as defined below. Then f(z) can be expanded in terms of polynomials An as follows:
f(z)=\sum_{n=0}^\infty \leftf^{(2n)}(0) + A_n(z) f^{(2n)}(1) \right + \sum_{k=1}^N C_k \sin (k\pi z).
Here An(z) is a polynomial in z of degree n, Ck a constant, and f(n)(a) the derivative of f at a. A function is said to be of exponential type of less than ''t'' if the function
h(\theta; f) = \lim \sup \frac{1}{r} \log |f(r e^{i\theta})|\,
is bounded above by t. Thus,the constant N used in the summation above is given by
t= \lim \sup h(\theta; f)\,
with
N\pi \leq t < (N+1)\pi.\,
