Sieved Jacobi polynomials

Last updated

In mathematics, sieved Jacobi polynomials are a family of sieved orthogonal polynomials, introduced by Askey (1984). Their recurrence relations are a modified (or "sieved") version of the recurrence relations for Jacobi polynomials.

Gábor Szegő was a Hungarian-American mathematician. He was one of the foremost mathematical analysts of his generation and made fundamental contributions to the theory of orthogonal polynomials and Toeplitz matrices building on the work of his contemporary Otto Toeplitz.

In mathematics, the classical orthogonal polynomials are the most widely used orthogonal polynomials: the Hermite polynomials, Laguerre polynomials, Jacobi polynomials.

In mathematics, Rodrigues' formula is a formula for the Legendre polynomials independently introduced by Olinde Rodrigues (1816), Sir James Ivory (1824) and Carl Gustav Jacobi (1827). The name "Rodrigues formula" was introduced by Heine in 1878, after Hermite pointed out in 1865 that Rodrigues was the first to discover it. The term is also used to describe similar formulas for other orthogonal polynomials. Askey (2005) describes the history of the Rodrigues formula in detail.

Richard Allen Askey was an American mathematician, known for his expertise in the area of special functions. The Askey–Wilson polynomials are on the top level of the Askey scheme, which organizes orthogonal polynomials of hypergeometric type into a hierarchy. The Askey–Gasper inequality for Jacobi polynomials is essential in de Brange's famous proof of the Bieberbach conjecture.

In mathematics, the Askey–Wilson polynomials are a family of orthogonal polynomials introduced by Askey and Wilson (1985) as q-analogs of the Wilson polynomials. They include many of the other orthogonal polynomials in 1 variable as special or limiting cases, described in the Askey scheme. Askey–Wilson polynomials are the special case of Macdonald polynomials for the non-reduced affine root system of type, and their 4 parameters a, b, c, d correspond to the 4 orbits of roots of this root system.

A Jacobi operator, also known as Jacobi matrix, is a symmetric linear operator acting on sequences which is given by an infinite tridiagonal matrix. It is commonly used to specify systems of orthonormal polynomials over a finite, positive Borel measure. This operator is named after Carl Gustav Jacob Jacobi.

In mathematics, Jacobi polynomials are a class of classical orthogonal polynomials. They are orthogonal with respect to the weight on the interval . The Gegenbauer polynomials, and thus also the Legendre, Zernike and Chebyshev polynomials, are special cases of the Jacobi polynomials.

In mathematics, the Askey scheme is a way of organizing orthogonal polynomials of hypergeometric or basic hypergeometric type into a hierarchy. For the classical orthogonal polynomials discussed in Andrews & Askey (1985), the Askey scheme was first drawn by Labelle (1985) and by Askey and Wilson (1985), and has since been extended by Koekoek & Swarttouw (1998) and Koekoek, Lesky & Swarttouw (2010) to cover basic orthogonal polynomials.

In mathematics, Favard's theorem, also called the Shohat–Favard theorem, states that a sequence of polynomials satisfying a suitable 3-term recurrence relation is a sequence of orthogonal polynomials. The theorem was introduced in the theory of orthogonal polynomials by Favard (1935) and Shohat (1938), though essentially the same theorem was used by Stieltjes in the theory of continued fractions many years before Favard's paper, and was rediscovered several times by other authors before Favard's work.

In mathematics, the term Pseudo Jacobi polynomials was introduced by Lesky for one of three finite sequences of orthogonal polynomials y. Since they form an orthogonal subset of Routh polynomials it seems consistent to refer to them as Romanovski-Routhpolynomials, by analogy with the terms Romanovski-Bessel and Romanovski-Jacobi used by Lesky. As shown by Askey for two other sequencesth is finite sequence orthogonal polynomials of can be expressed in terms of Jacobi polynomials of imaginary argument. In following Raposo et al. they are often referred to simply as Romanovskipolynomials.

In mathematics, an orthogonal polynomial sequence is a family of polynomials such that any two different polynomials in the sequence are orthogonal to each other under some inner product.

In mathematics, sieved orthogonal polynomials are orthogonal polynomials whose recurrence relations are formed by sieving the recurrence relations of another family; in other words, some of the recurrence relations are replaced by simpler ones. The first examples were the sieved ultraspherical polynomials introduced by Waleed Al-Salam, W. R. Allaway, and Richard Askey (1984). Mourad Ismail later studied sieved orthogonal polynomials in a long series of papers. Other families of sieved orthogonal polynomials that have been studied include sieved Pollaczek polynomials, and sieved Jacobi polynomials.

(x;k) and Bλ

(x;k) of sieved ultraspherical polynomials, introduced by Waleed Al-Salam, W.R. Allaway and Richard Askey in 1984, are the archetypal examples of sieved orthogonal polynomials. Their recurrence relations are a modified (or "sieved") version of the recurrence relations for ultraspherical polynomials.

In mathematics, the Romanovski polynomials are one of three finite subsets of real orthogonal polynomials discovered by Vsevolod Romanovsky within the context of probability distribution functions in statistics. They form an orthogonal subset of a more general family of little-known Routh polynomials introduced by Edward John Routh in 1884. The term Romanovski polynomials was put forward by Raposo, with reference to the so-called 'pseudo-Jacobi polynomials in Lesky's classification scheme. It seems more consistent to refer to them as Romanovski–Routh polynomials, by analogy with the terms Romanovski–Bessel and Romanovski–Jacobi used by Lesky for two other sets of orthogonal polynomials.
