jacobi.g.polynomials: Create list of Jacobi polynomials

Description

This function returns a list with \(n + 1\) elements containing the order \(k\) Jacobi polynomials, \(G_k \left( {p,q,x} \right)\), for orders \(k = 0,\;1,\; \ldots ,\;n\).

Usage

jacobi.g.polynomials(n, p, q, normalized=FALSE)

Value

A list of \(n + 1\) polynomial objects

1

order 0 Jacobi polynomial

2

order 1 Jacobi polynomial

...

n+1

order \(n\) Jacobi polynomial

Arguments

n

integer value for the highest polynomial order

p

numeic value for the first polynomial parameter

q

numeric value for the second polynomial parameter

normalized

a boolean value which, if TRUE, returns a list of normalized orthogonal polynomials

Author

Frederick Novomestky

Details

The function jacobi.g.recurrences produces a data frame with the recurrence relation parameters for the polynomials. If the normalized argument is FALSE, the function orthogonal.polynomials is used to construct the list of orthogonal polynomial objects. Otherwise, the function orthonormal.polynomials is used to construct the list of orthonormal polynomial objects.
