Fourier analysisRelated: Periodic functions are the natural domain of Fourier series.
Unit circleRelated: A full revolution returns to the same point, giving sine and cosine period 2π.
Phase (waves)Narrower topic: A repeating waveform provides the cycle whose position phase describes.
CosineNarrower topic: Cosine repeats every full revolution, with period 2π.
HertzRelated: Its repetition rate can be expressed in hertz.
LatticeRelated: A lattice can supply the translation periods of a function in multiple dimensions.
Wave vectorRelated: A wave vector describes the spatial periodicity of a repeating wave pattern.
Fejér's theoremRelated: The theorem applies to continuous functions with a fixed period.
Dirichlet–Jordan testRelated: Fourier series represent periodic functions, the setting of the test.
Lonely runner conjectureRelated: Track positions repeat modulo one as the runners circulate.
