The Chebyshev function (), with x < 50 The function (), for x < 10 4 The function (), for x < 10 7. In mathematics, the Chebyshev function is either a scalarising function (Tchebycheff function) or one of two related functions.
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 ().
Chebyshev's inequality is important because of its applicability to any distribution. As a result of its generality it may not (and usually does not) provide as sharp a bound as alternative methods that can be used if the distribution of the random variable is known.
Plot of the absolute value of the seventh-order (n = 7) Chebyshev rational function for 0.01 ≤ x ≤ 100. Note that there are n zeroes arranged symmetrically about x = 1 and if x 0 is a zero, then 1 / x 0 is a zero as well. The maximum value between the zeros is unity. These properties hold for all orders. Defining:
Many applications for Chebyshev nodes, such as the design of equally terminated passive Chebyshev filters, cannot use Chebyshev nodes directly, due to the lack of a root at 0. However, the Chebyshev nodes may be modified into a usable form by translating the roots down such that the lowest roots are moved to zero, thereby creating two roots at ...
Chebyshev's sum inequality, about sums and products of decreasing sequences Chebyshev's equioscillation theorem , on the approximation of continuous functions with polynomials The statement that if the function π ( x ) ln x / x {\textstyle \pi (x)\ln x/x} has a limit at infinity, then the limit is 1 (where π is the prime-counting function).
The discrepancy is less serious for the exp function, which has an extremely rapidly converging power series, than for the log function. Chebyshev approximation is the basis for Clenshaw–Curtis quadrature, a numerical integration technique.
