Boundedness of sum of sin(sin(n))

Playing with desmos I have accidentally noticed that the sequence of partial sums $$\left\{ \sum_{n=1}^{N}\sin(\sin(n)) : N\geq 1 \right\}$$ is bounded. However, I did not succeed in proving this ...

Infinite series with inverse trigonometric functions

Consider the infinite series $$ F(s)=\sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac{1}{k^{2s+1} \sin(k \pi \sqrt{2})} $$ Prudnikov Vol.1 , gives a result for this sum in 5.4.16.13 for $s=1.$ $$ F(1)=-\frac{13 \pi^3}{360 \...

A new arranging of discrete sine transform

Let $n$ be even and consider the discrete sine transform of type 5 which is the matrix $$S=\left(\sin(k+1)(l+1)\frac{\pi}{n+\frac12}\right)_{k,l=0}^{n-1}$$ Let us denote by $s_{-,l}$ the $l^{\text{...

What is the Jacobi-Anger expansion of $\sin^{[k]} (\theta) $?

Cross-post from MSE. The Jacobi-Anger expansion gives expressions for functional iterates of trigonometric functions in terms of Bessel functions. For instance, we have $$\sin(z \sin(\theta)) = 2 \...

Sum of $\sin$ when angles shrink by $1/n$

There are many identities known like $$\sum_{k=0}^{n-1} \sin (k \cdot \theta + \varphi) = \frac{\sin\left(n \cdot \frac{\theta}{2}\right)}{\sin\left(\frac{\theta}{2}\right)} \cdot \sin \left(\frac{2 \...

Convergence of a Trigonometric Series

After working with a Fourier series for a while, I realized that it would be of great help to me if I could prove that the following limit is zero: $$\lim_{N\to\infty}\frac{1}{N}\sum_{m=1}^\infty\frac{...

Does the following inequality hold under Zygmund condition?

Let $f:R\rightarrow R$ be a continuous function which satisfies the Zygmund condition $$ |f(x+\delta)+f(x-\delta)-2f(x)|\leq \text{const} \frac{|\delta|}{(\log\frac{1}{|\delta|})^{\alpha}}, \,\, \...

Need to bound a trigonometric sum

Let $\boldsymbol{\theta}=(\theta_1,\ldots,\theta_m)$ be a vector of real numbers in $[-\pi,\pi]$. For $t\ge 0$, define $$ f(t,\boldsymbol{\theta}) = \binom{m+t-1}{t}^{-1} \sum_{j_1+\cdots+j_m=t} \exp(...
