This sum is called a Chebyshev series or a Chebyshev expansion. Since a Chebyshev series is related to a Fourier cosine series through a change of variables, all of the theorems, identities, etc. that apply to Fourier series have a Chebyshev counterpart. [16] These attributes include: The Chebyshev polynomials form a complete orthogonal system.
In mathematics, discrete Chebyshev polynomials, or Gram polynomials, are a type of discrete orthogonal polynomials used in approximation theory, introduced by Pafnuty Chebyshev [1] and rediscovered by Gram. [2] They were later found to be applicable to various algebraic properties of spin angular momentum.
The Chebyshev Lambda Linkage is used in vehicle suspension mechanisms, walking robots, and rover wheel mechanisms. In 2004, a study completed as a Master of Science Thesis at Izmir Institute of Technology introduced a new mechanism design by combining two symmetrical Lambda linkages to distribute the force evenly on to ground with providing the ...
Clenshaw–Curtis quadrature and Fejér quadrature are methods for numerical integration, or "quadrature", that are based on an expansion of the integrand in terms of Chebyshev polynomials. Equivalently, they employ a change of variables x = cos θ {\displaystyle x=\cos \theta } and use a discrete cosine transform (DCT) approximation for ...
In applied mathematics, a discrete Chebyshev transform (DCT) is an analog of the discrete Fourier transform for a function of a real interval, converting in either direction between function values at a set of Chebyshev nodes and coefficients of a function in Chebyshev polynomial basis. Like the Chebyshev polynomials, it is named after Pafnuty ...
In kinematics, Chebyshev's linkage is a four-bar linkage that converts rotational motion to approximate linear motion. It was invented by the 19th-century mathematician Pafnuty Chebyshev , who studied theoretical problems in kinematic mechanisms .
Because of this, expansion of functions in terms of Chebyshev polynomials is sometimes used for polynomial approximations in computer math libraries. Some authors use versions of these polynomials that have been shifted so that the interval of orthogonality is [0, 1] or [−2, 2].
The Chebyshev nodes of the second kind, also called the Chebyshev extrema, are the extrema of the Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind, which are also the zeros of the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind. Both of these sets of numbers are commonly referred to as Chebyshev nodes in literature. [1]
