That's right, an infinite product for sin(x) courtesy of Euler (feat. a crazy series for cot(x))

[@sarthak.chatterjee1]

Beautiful, one of my favorite results in all of math! A fun fact/observation: Note how the infinite series for cot(x) you derive is exactly of the form that x - cot(x) has the perfect structure for Glasser's Master Theorem (GMT) to hold! So, we have that the integral from -infinity to + infinity of f(x - cot(x)) dx is exactly equal to the integral from -infinity to + infinity of f(x) dx. This fact/technique/trick, combined with a proper choice of f(x) eases the evaluation of certain tricky integrals, e.g., the integral from -infinity to + infinity of 1/(1+( x + tan(x) )^2) dx. Would love to see some videos on applications of the GMT on your channel!

your videos are getting crazier and crazier, and I love it 🔥 🔥

[@maths_505]

Thanks mate although this one was alot more on the academic side but I really love this series for the cotangent. Oh and if you differentiate it you get an awesome expansion for csc²(x)

[@truIyepic]

​@maths_505 personally I find academic problems really interesting, especially as we don't learn this at school yet. And yeah, differentiating does produce a cool expansion, I didn't think of that 😅

Holly mother of Gosh! This proof of cot z is awesome! I searched for that all over internet and textbooks, but never reached the answer. Thanks

[@banjo2402]

I love the fact that I come here without any knowledge about advanced math (so I don't understand where all the weird functions like zeta, eta and gamma etc. come from) but I can understand the algebra and most of the calculus so I can still enjoy the vids

[@gonzus1966]

That was awesome. Euler really is the master of us all.

I noticed it's possible to derive series expansion of 'cot(πx)' using properties of digamma function (corollary of the Euler's reflection formula for gamma function & series expansion of digamma function). Seems to be short and beautiful result but requires knowledge about gamma-digamma brothers. My first derivation of the expansion was based on Fourier series too

[@ShinjiCarlos]

My Gosh, that is jaw dropping. Made my saturday night. Gorgeous!

[@lorck3261]

Why at minute 8:46 did you write "cos(k.x)" instead of "cos(k.t.x)" if the function is evaluated in "z", and "z = t.x". In this case, wouldn't you have to do: "cos(k.t.x)"? It would not be possible to do a manipulation like: "(-1)^(k)" because "t" is not an integer. Please, I really need this answer.

Masterpiece video. As a small request, could you nuke some more integrals with contour integration. I dont know about others but i am kind of a sucker for complex analysis. You could also follow up with eulers proof of the basel problem since the sin product form and it are basically synonymous.

[@maths_505]

Oh yes ofcourse I'd love to. Could you do me a favor and DM this to my instagram so I remember

Amazing Proof. Thank you for your fruitful effort.

It is easy to verify Euler's product against the formula from Fourier analysis just by looking at the logarithmic derivative of sin(x)/x.

[@cameronspalding9792]

The formula for the Fourier series term only works when t^2 is not k^2

[@EtienneSturm1]

that was indeed beautiful. Thanks

[@yoav613]

Nicely done! By the way if you choose x=0.5pi instead of pi,you can derive the series representation of 1/sinx.

[@idjles]

Your final solution is just a polynomial of degree N with roots at every n*pi and then you let N go to infinity. So the result can bee achieved “by inspection” of the sine graph.

[@maths_505]

I believe that's exactly how euler did it before providing a formal proof

[@kkanden]

omg no way i was literally searching for proof of this formula today as i knew that euler didn't actually prove this when researching the zeta function. great video! what device do you use to make your videos?

I have been delaying the proper proof of this formula for so long so it somehow appeared in front of me by itself! thanks

[@maths_505]

Oh that's awesome mate! And yeah it's a beautiful result. The amazing thing is they extend to complex numbers too cuz complex sin(z) and cot(z) have the same zeros and poles respectively as their real counterparts.

Why would you rather write (tsintπ) (-1)^k+1 instead of tsin(tπ) (-1)^k+1? Are you () phobic

Wow 🤯

[@PyarMatKaro]

You told us that x had to be strictly between -pi and pi. Then you set x equal to pi. I don't follow!

[@maths_505]

Oh the fourier series is perfectly valid for the closed interval between -pi and +pi. And in fact we normally use closed intervals whenever possible....I should've written that instead of the open interval even though it's clear that the series works for pi as well.
