Resultants and Discriminants of Chebyshev and Related Polynomials

چکیده
We show that the resultants with respect to x of certain linear forms in Chebyshev polynomials with argument x are again linear forms in Chebyshev polynomials. Their coefficients and arguments are certain rational functions of the coefficients of the original forms. We apply this to establish several related results involving resultants and discriminants of polynomials, including certain self-reciprocal quadrinomials.

Explicit factors of some iterated resultants and discriminants
In this paper, the result of applying iterative univariate resultant constructions to multivariate polynomials is analyzed. We consider the input polynomials as generic polynomials of a given degree and exhibit explicit decompositions into irreducible factors of several constructions involving two times iterated univariate resultants and discriminants over the integer universal ring of coe cien...
متن کاملDiscriminants of Chebyshev-like Polynomials and Their Generating Functions
In his paper of 2000, Kenneth B. Stolarsky made various observations and conjectures about discriminants and generating functions of certain types of Chebyshev-like polynomials. We prove several of these conjectures. One of our proofs involves Wilf-Zeilberger pairs and a contiguous relation for hypergeometric series.
متن کاملOn the singular values of Weber modular functions
The minimal polynomials of the singular values of the classical Weber modular functions give far simpler defining polynomials for the class fields of imaginary quadratic fields than the minimal polynomials of singular moduli of level 1. We describe computations of these polynomials and give conjectural formulas describing the prime decomposition of their resultants and discriminants, extending ...
متن کاملA spectral method based on the second kind Chebyshev polynomials for solving a class of fractional optimal control problems
In this paper, we consider the second-kind Chebyshev polynomials (SKCPs) for the numerical solution of the fractional optimal control problems (FOCPs). Firstly, an introduction of the fractional calculus and properties of the shifted SKCPs are given and then operational matrix of fractional integration is introduced. Next, these properties are used together with the Legendre-Gauss quadrature fo...
متن کاملA numerical Algorithm Based on Chebyshev Polynomials for Solving some Inverse Source Problems
In this paper, two inverse problems of determining an unknown source term in a parabolic equation are considered. First, the unknown source term is estimated in the form of a combination of Chebyshev functions. Then, a numerical algorithm based on Chebyshev polynomials is presented for obtaining the solution of the problem. For solving the problem, the operational matrices of int...
