Let \(H=L^2(\mathbb R/\mathbb Z)\), with the usual Lebesgue measure on \(\mathbb R/\mathbb Z\) of total measure \(1\). It is well known that this space has a Hilbert basis \(e_n=e^{2\pi i n x}\), \(n\in \mathbb Z\). Let \(f\in H\) be given by \(f(x)=x\) on \([0,1)\). Compute \(\lVert f\rVert _2^2\) directly and then using Parseval’s equality.
