jacobi.g.recurrences: Recurrence relations for Jacobi polynomials

Description

This function returns a data frame with \(n + 1\) rows and four named columns containing the coefficient vectors c, d, e and f of the recurrence relations for the order \(k\) Jacobi polynomial, \(G_k \left( {p,q,x} \right)\), and for orders \(k = 0,\;1,\; \ldots ,\;n\).

Usage

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

Value

A data frame with the recurrence relation parameters.

Arguments

n

integer value for the highest polynomial order

p

numeric value for the first polynomial parameter

q

numeric value for the second polynomial parameter

normalized

boolean value which, if TRUE, returns recurrence relations for normalized polynomials
