jacobi.g.inner.products: Inner products of Jacobi polynomials

In orthopolynom: Collection of Functions for Orthogonal and Orthonormal Polynomials

Inner products of Jacobi polynomials

Description

This function returns a vector with n + 1 elements containing the inner product of an order k Jacobi polynomial, G_k ≤ft( {p,q,x} \right), with itself (i.e. the norm squared) for orders k = 0,\;1,\; … ,\;n .

Usage

jacobi.g.inner.products(n,p,q)

Arguments

n	integer value for the highest polynomial order
p	numeric value for the first polynomial parameter
q	numeric value for the first polynomial parameter

Details

The formula used to compute the inner products is as follows.

h_n = ≤ft\langle {G_n |G_n } \right\rangle = \frac{{n!\;Γ ≤ft( {n + q} \right)\,Γ ≤ft( {n + p} \right)\,Γ ≤ft( {n + p - q + 1} \right)}} {{≤ft( {2\,n + p} \right)\,≤ft[ {Γ ≤ft( {2\,n + p} \right)} \right]^2 }}.

Value

A vector with n + 1 elements

1	inner product of order 0 orthogonal polynomial
2	inner product of order 1 orthogonal polynomial

...

n+1	inner product of order n orthogonal polynomial
