Chebyshev's equation is the second order linear differential equation : where p is a real constant. The equation is named after Russian mathematician Pafnuty Chebyshev. The solutions are obtained by power series: : where the coefficients obey the recurrence relation : These series converge for x in , as may be seen by applying the ratio test to the recurrence. The recurrence may be started with arbitrary values of a0 and a1, leading to the two-dimensional space of solutions that arises from second order differential equations. The standard choices are: :a0 = 1 ; a1 = 0, leading to the solution : and :a0 = 0 ; a1 = 1, leading to the solution : The general solution is any linear combination of these two. When p is an 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 pth degree polynomial (converging everywhere, of course), and that polynomial is proportional to the pth Chebyshev polynomial. : if p is even : if p is odd 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Chebyshev equation」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
