Abstract
We present recursive analysis for beam dynamics of periodic focusing channels based on the Fourier coefficients of the focusing function. Formulas for orbit stability and the envelope function are derived. The results should be useful for numerical calculation and for developing analytical understanding of channels employing extended focusing elements. Applications to muon ionization cooling channels are discussed.

- At the stability boundaries given by the equal sign of Eq. (6), the orbits may or may not be stable. For accelerator applications, the stability on the boundaries is not so important since particles need to be away from unstable regions.
