Consider the function
fν(x)≡2π1∫Cexp[−ixsinz+iνz]dz
where the contour C is the boundary of the half-strip {z:−π<Rez<π and Imz>0}, taken anti-clockwise.
Use integration by parts and the method of stationary phase to:
(i) Obtain the leading term for fν(x) coming from the vertical lines z=±π+iy(0< y<+∞) for large x>0.
(ii) Show that the leading term in the asymptotic expansion of the function fν(x) for large positive x is
πx2cos(x−21νπ−4π)
and obtain an estimate for the remainder as O(x−a) for some a to be determined.
