Aug 11, 2017 at 6:17 comment added Zinkin @ChristianRemling the way the question was initially phrased was that $f$ only overlapped with $h_0$ and $h_1$, it had zero overlap with all other $h_i$. Thus, the projection of $f$ onto the span of the $h_i$ was equal to the projection onto the span of $h_0$ and $h_1$, no?
Aug 11, 2017 at 0:26 comment added Christian Remling I think your edits completely killed the question: $h_1$ is trivially a linear combination of $g_0,g_1$ only, simply because the initial pieces of the $g$'s always have the same linear span as those of the $h$'s, just by how Gram-Schmidt works, and all the extra information is completely irrelevant for this. Your previous version looked much more interesting, where you ask this question about a new function $f$ rather than $h_1$.
Aug 10, 2017 at 21:30 comment added user69109 @MateuszKwaśnicki sure, I was just curious.
Aug 10, 2017 at 21:29 comment added Mateusz Kwaśnicki @Tokoyo: As usual, it took me more than a couple of minutes.

Aug 10, 2017 at 21:11 comment added user69109 @MateuszKwaśnicki so do you have now a proof for the statement?
Aug 10, 2017 at 20:19 comment added Mateusz Kwaśnicki Of course I messed this up again, $\langle h_0, g_1\rangle = 0$. I was thinking about $\langle h_1, g_0\rangle$. Sorry.
Aug 10, 2017 at 20:08 comment added Mateusz Kwaśnicki @Zinkin: Although $\langle h_0, g_1\rangle$ is non-zero, $h_0$ is indeed not interesting. But so is $h_1$! I will write up an answer in a couple of minutes. By the way, $\langle h_0, h_1\rangle = \langle h_1, h_2\rangle$, if I understand correctly.

Aug 10, 2017 at 14:31 comment added Zinkin @MateuszKwaśnicki not quite, since $\langle h_0,g_n\rangle =\delta_{0,n}$ but if we answer this question for $h_1$ as well, then I think we have it. Thank you for your remark, I will adapt the question accordingly.

Aug 10, 2017 at 12:55 comment added Mateusz Kwaśnicki If I understand correctly, you do not really need $f$ and the projection: you ask how fast do the inner products $\langle h_0, g_n\rangle$ go to zero, right?

Aug 10, 2017 at 8:02 comment added Dirk Your formula for $g_2$ does not seem right.
