General approaches to the analysis of the Gibbs phenomenon for discontinuous periodic signals approximated by the truncated Fourier series are considered. Methods for smoothing the truncated Fourier series and improving its convergence are discussed. The software means for modeling is a universal measuring complex LabVIEW, which possesses a convenient environment for analyzing electrical signals, on the basis of this complex a laboratory experiment is carried out. The advantages of the measuring LabVIEW complex and its capabilities for in-depth study of discontinuous periodic signals are noted.

Income redistribution with an efficiency loss is expected to have a twofold negative effect on support for redistribution, as it lowers egoistic support for redistribution and activates efficiency preferences. This study tests whether such a negative relationship exists, increases with the size of efficiency loss and interacts with group communication and the income position. We present a laboratory experiment in which subjects receive a randomly allocated income and must coordinate on a majority tax rate using a deliberative communication tool. The rate of money lost as a part of the redistribution process is manipulated as a treatment variable (0%, 5%, 20%, or 60%). Experimental evidence shows that efficiency loss exerts a robust negative effect on support for redistribution. The effect shows a tipping point pattern, is stronger at the lower end of the income distribution and is not fully explained by egoistic preferences. Inefficiency matters mostly for the chosen tax rate after group communication. At an efficiency loss of 60%, however, group communication does not affect support for redistribution, which implies that inefficiencies tend to play a minor role in the context of redistribution as long as they are within a moderate range.
