The theory of almost periodic functions in constructive mathematics

James Dennis Brom

Vol. 70 (1977), No. 1, 67–81
Abstract

In this paper we develop a constructive theory of continuous almost periodic functions. We expose those aspects of the standard theory that are not constructive and give constructive substitutes. For example, it is not true in constructive mathematics that each trigonometric polynomial is almost periodic. A trigonometric polynomial is almost periodic if and only if its exponents are rationally discrete. We obtain a constructive proof of Bohr’s fundamental theorem that leads to a computational method for uniform approximations to continuous almost periodic functions by trigonometric polynomials.
