Fourier series of $\log(a +b\cos(x))$?

By numerical computation it seems like, if $a_0 < a_1$: $$ \begin{multline} \log({a_0}^2 + {a_1}^2 + 2 a_0 a_1 \cos(\omega t)) = \log({a_0}^2 + {a_1}^2) \\ + \frac{a_0}{a_1}\cos(\omega t) - \frac{1}{ …

Fourier series of $\log(a +b\cos(x))$?

To apply the solution proposed by @ChristianRemling to the more general case stated in the title you need to do the following: The formula implies $a > 0$ and $|b| < a$. To solve the problem, we refo …
