Plot of the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind () with = in the complex plane from -2-2i to 2+2i with colors created with Mathematica 13.1 function ComplexPlot3D. The Chebyshev polynomials are two sequences of polynomials related to the cosine and sine functions, notated as () and ().
When p is a non-negative integer, one or the other of the two functions has its series terminate after a finite number of terms: F terminates if p is even, and G terminates if p is odd. In this case, that function is a polynomial of degree p and it is proportional to the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind
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]
The first Chebyshev function ϑ (x) or θ (x) is given by = where denotes the natural logarithm, with the sum extending over all prime numbers p that are less than or equal to x. The second Chebyshev function ψ (x) is defined similarly, with the sum extending over all prime powers not exceeding x
A typical example of a Chebyshev space is the subspace of Chebyshev polynomials of order n in the space of real continuous functions on an interval, C[a, b]. The polynomial of best approximation within a given subspace is defined to be the one that minimizes the maximum absolute difference between the polynomial and the function.
Chebyshev Polynomials: From Approximation Theory to Algebra and Number Theory. NY: Wiley. 1990; 249 pages, revised 2nd edition of The Chebyshev Polynomials ; addition of about 80 exercises, a chapter introducing some elementary algebraic and number theoretic properties of the Chebyshev polynomials, and additional coverage of the polynomials ...
The Gegenbauer polynomials form the most important class of Jacobi polynomials; they include the Chebyshev polynomials, and the Legendre polynomials as special cases. The field of orthogonal polynomials developed in the late 19th century from a study of continued fractions by P. L. Chebyshev and was pursued by A. A. Markov and T. J. Stieltjes.
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 ...
