spherical.polynomials {orthopolynom} | R Documentation |
This function returns a list with $n$+1 elements containing the order $k$ spherical polynomials, P_k ( x ), for orders $k$ = 0, 1, ..., $n$.
spherical.polynomials(n, normalized=FALSE)
n |
integer highest polynomial order |
normalized |
a boolean value which, if TRUE, returns a list of normalized orthogonal polynomials |
The function produces a data frame with the recurrence relation parameters for the orthogonal polynomials. It then uses the function orthogonal.polynomials
to construct the list of polynomial objects from the recurrence relations.
A list of $n$+1 polynomial objects
1 |
order 0 spherical polynomial |
2 |
order 1 spherical polynomial |
n+1 |
order $n$ Chebyshev polynomial |
