  • Orthogonal Functions: the Legendre, Laguerre, and Hermite Polynomials
    ORTHOGONAL FUNCTIONS: THE LEGENDRE, LAGUERRE, AND HERMITE POLYNOMIALS THOMAS COVERSON, SAVARNIK DIXIT, ALYSHA HARBOUR, AND TYLER OTTO Abstract. The Legendre, Laguerre, and Hermite equations are all homogeneous second order Sturm-Liouville equations. Using the Sturm-Liouville Theory we will be able to show that polynomial solutions to these equations are orthogonal. In a more general context, finding that these solutions are orthogonal allows us to write a function as a Fourier series with respect to these solutions. 1. Introduction The Legendre, Laguerre, and Hermite equations have many real world practical uses which we will not discuss here. We will only focus on the methods of solution and use in a mathematical sense. In solving these equations explicit solutions cannot be found. That is solutions in in terms of elementary functions cannot be found. In many cases it is easier to find a numerical or series solution. There is a generalized Fourier series theory which allows one to write a function f(x) as a linear combination of an orthogonal system of functions φ1(x),φ2(x),...,φn(x),... on [a; b]. The series produced is called the Fourier series with respect to the orthogonal system. While the R b a f(x)φn(x)dx coefficients ,which can be determined by the formula cn = R b 2 , a φn(x)dx are called the Fourier coefficients with respect to the orthogonal system. We are concerned only with showing that the Legendre, Laguerre, and Hermite polynomial solutions are orthogonal and can thus be used to form a Fourier series. In order to proceed we must define an inner product and define what it means for a linear operator to be self- adjoint.

  • Generalizations and Specializations of Generating Functions for Jacobi, Gegenbauer, Chebyshev and Legendre Polynomials with Definite Integrals
    Journal of Classical Analysis Volume 3, Number 1 (2013), 17–33 doi:10.7153/jca-03-02 GENERALIZATIONS AND SPECIALIZATIONS OF GENERATING FUNCTIONS FOR JACOBI, GEGENBAUER, CHEBYSHEV AND LEGENDRE POLYNOMIALS WITH DEFINITE INTEGRALS HOWARD S. COHL AND CONNOR MACKENZIE Abstract. In this paper we generalize and specialize generating functions for classical orthogo- nal polynomials, namely Jacobi, Gegenbauer, Chebyshev and Legendre polynomials. We derive a generalization of the generating function for Gegenbauer polynomials through extension a two element sequence of generating functions for Jacobi polynomials. Specializations of generat- ing functions are accomplished through the re-expression of Gauss hypergeometric functions in terms of less general functions. Definite integrals which correspond to the presented orthogonal polynomial series expansions are also given. 1. Introduction This paper concerns itself with analysis of generating functions for Jacobi, Gegen- bauer, Chebyshev and Legendre polynomials involving generalization and specializa- tion by re-expression of Gauss hypergeometric generating functions for these orthog- onal polynomials. The generalizations that we present here are for two of the most important generating functions for Jacobi polynomials, namely [4, (4.3.1–2)].1 In fact, these are the first two generating functions which appear in Section 4.3 of [4]. As we will show, these two generating functions, traditionally expressed in terms of Gauss hy- pergeometric functions, can be re-expressed in terms of associated Legendre functions (and also in terms of Ferrers functions, associated Legendre functions on the real seg- ment ( 1,1)). Our Jacobi polynomial generating function generalizations, Theorem 1, Corollary− 1 and Corollary 2, generalize the generating function for Gegenbauer polyno- mials.

    HARMONIC ANALYSIS OF LITTLE q-LEGENDRE POLYNOMIALS STEFAN KAHLER Abstract. Many classes of orthogonal polynomials satisfy a specific linearization prop- erty giving rise to a polynomial hypergroup structure, which offers an elegant and fruitful link to harmonic and functional analysis. From the opposite point of view, this allows regarding certain Banach algebras as L1-algebras, associated with underlying orthogonal polynomials or with the corresponding orthogonalization measures. The individual be- havior strongly depends on these underlying polynomials. We study the little q-Legendre polynomials, which are orthogonal with respect to a discrete measure. Their L1-algebras have been known to be not amenable but to satisfy some weaker properties like right character amenability. We will show that the L1-algebras associated with the little q- Legendre polynomials share the property that every element can be approximated by linear combinations of idempotents. This particularly implies that these L1-algebras are weakly amenable (i. e., every bounded derivation into the dual module is an inner deriva- tion), which is known to be shared by any L1-algebra of a locally compact group. As a crucial tool, we establish certain uniform boundedness properties of the characters. Our strategy relies on continued fractions, character estimations and asymptotic behavior. 1. Introduction 1.1. Motivation. One of the most famous results of mathematics, the ‘Banach–Tarski paradox’, states that any ball in d ≥ 3 dimensions can be split into a finite number of pieces in such a way that these pieces can be reassembled into two balls of the original size. It is also well-known that there is no analogue for d 2 f1; 2g, and the Banach–Tarski paradox heavily relies on the axiom of choice [37].

  • Shifted Jacobi Polynomials and Delannoy Numbers
    SHIFTED JACOBI POLYNOMIALS AND DELANNOY NUMBERS GABOR´ HETYEI A` la m´emoire de Pierre Leroux Abstract. We express a weigthed generalization of the Delannoy numbers in terms of shifted Jacobi polynomials. A specialization of our formulas extends a relation between the central Delannoy numbers and Legendre polynomials, observed over 50 years ago [8], [13], [14], to all Delannoy numbers and certain Jacobi polynomials. Another specializa- tion provides a weighted lattice path enumeration model for shifted Jacobi polynomials and allows the presentation of a combinatorial, non-inductive proof of the orthogonality of Jacobi polynomials with natural number parameters. The proof relates the orthogo- nality of these polynomials to the orthogonality of (generalized) Laguerre polynomials, as they arise in the theory of rook polynomials. We also find finite orthogonal polynomial sequences of Jacobi polynomials with negative integer parameters and expressions for a weighted generalization of the Schr¨odernumbers in terms of the Jacobi polynomials. Introduction It has been noted more than fifty years ago [8], [13], [14] that the diagonal entries of the Delannoy array (dm,n), introduced by Henri Delannoy [5], and the Legendre polynomials Pn(x) satisfy the equality (1) dn,n = Pn(3), but this relation was mostly considered a “coincidence”. An important observation of our present work is that (1) can be extended to (α,0) (2) dn+α,n = Pn (3) for all α ∈ Z such that α ≥ −n, (α,0) where Pn (x) is the Jacobi polynomial with parameters (α, 0). This observation in itself is a strong indication that the interaction between Jacobi polynomials (generalizing Le- gendre polynomials) and the Delannoy numbers is more than a mere coincidence.

If we replace y in the expansion of (l-\-y)~v by 2xz-\-z2, the coefficient of zn will, when x is replaced by —x, be the generalized polynomial L'ñ(x) of Legendre. It is also easy to show that the Hermitian polynomial Hn(x), usually defined by is the coefficient of 2"/«! in the series obtained on replacing y in the expansion of e~y by the same expression 2xz-\-z2.

    ME201/MTH281/ME400/CHE400 Legendre Polynomials 1. Introduction This notebook has three objectives: (1) to summarize some useful information about Legendre polynomials, (2) to show how to use Mathematica in calculations with Legendre polynomials, and (3) to present some examples of the use of Legendre polynomials in the solution of Laplace's equation in spherical coordinates. In our course, the Legendre polynomials arose from separation of variables for the Laplace equation in spherical coordinates, so we begin there. The basic spherical coordinate system is shown below. The location of a point P is specified by the distance r of the point from the origin, the angle f between the position vector and the z-axis, and the angle q from the x-axis to the projection of the position vector onto the xy plane. The Laplace equation for a function F(r, f, q) is given by 1 ¶ ¶F 1 ¶ ¶F 1 ¶2 F “2 F = r2 + sinf + = 0 .

We produce new hypergeometric transformations and closed-form evaluations for new series involving harmonic numbers, through the use of the integration method outlined as follows: Letting K denote the complete elliptic integral of the first kind, for a suitable function g we evaluate integrals such as 1 K √x g(x) dx Z0 in two different ways: (1) by expanding K as a Maclaurin series, perhaps after a transformation or a change of variable, and then integrating term-by-term; and (2) by expanding g as a shifted FL series, and then integrating term-by-term. Equating the expressions produced by these two approaches often gives us new arXiv:1710.03221v4 [math.NT] 13 Feb 2019 closed-form evaluations, as in the formulas involving Catalan’s constant G 2 4 1 ∞ 2n Hn+ 1 Hn 1 Γ 4G 4 − − 4 = 4 , n 16n 8π2 − π n=0 X 2 2 2m 2n 7ζ(3) 4G m n = − . 16m+n(m + n + 1)(2m + 3) π2 m,n 0 X≥ ∗Corresponding author Email address: [email protected] (John M.

  • Legendre Polynomials and Applications
    LEGENDRE POLYNOMIALS AND APPLICATIONS We construct Legendre polynomials and apply them to solve Dirichlet problems in spherical coordinates. 1. Legendre equation: series solutions The Legendre equation is the second order differential equation (1) (1 − x2)y00 − 2xy0 + λy = 0 which can also be written in self-adjoint form as [ ]0 (2) (1 − x2)y0 + λy = 0 : This equation has regular singular points at x = −1 and at x = 1 while x = 0 is an ordinary point. We can find power series solutions centered at x = 0 (the radius of convergence will be at least 1). Now we construct such series solutions. Assume that X1 j y = cjx j=0 be a solution of (1). By substituting such a series in (1), we get X1 X1 X1 2 j−2 j−1 j (1 − x ) j(j − 1)cjx − 2x jcjx + λ cjx = 0 j=2 j=1 j=0 X1 X1 X1 X1 j−2 j j j j(j − 1)cjx − j(j − 1)cjx − 2jcjx + λ cjx = 0 j=2 j=2 j=1 j=0 After re-indexing the first series and grouping the other series, we get X1 X1 j 2 j (j + 2)(j + 1)cj+2x − (j + j − λ)cjx = 0 j=0 j=0 and then X1 [ ] 2 j (j + 2)(j + 1)cj+2 − (j + j − λ)cj x = 0 : j=0 By equating each coefficient to 0, we obtain the recurrence relations (j + 1)j − λ c = c ; j = 0; 1; 2; ··· j+2 (j + 2)(j + 1) j We can obtain two independent solutions as follows.
