About ten years ago I gave a course of lectures on Trigonometric Series, following closely the treatment of that subject in Riemann's \Partielle Di erentialgleichungen," to accompany a short course on The Potential Function, given by Professor B. O. Peirce. My course has been gradually modied and extended until it has become an introduction to Spherical Harmonics and Bessel's and Lam e's Functions. Two years ago my lecture notes were lithographed by my class for their own use and were found so convenient that. | The Project Gutenberg EBook of An Elementary Treatise on Fourier s Series and Spherical Cylindrical and Ellipsoidal Harmonics by William Elwood Byerly This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with almost no restrictions whatsoever.

About ten years ago I gave a course of lectures on Trigonometric Series following closely the treatment of that subject in Riemann s Partielle Differen-tialgleichungen to accompany a short course on The Potential Function given by Professor B. O. Peirce. My course has been gradually modified and extended until it has become an introduction to Spherical Harmonics and Bessel s and Lame s Functions.
