چکیده

—An explicit formula for the Fourier coef cients of the Legendre polynomials can be found in the Bateman Manuscript Project. However, formulas for more general classes of orthogonal polynomials do not appear to have been worked out. Here we derive explicit formulas for the Fourier series of Gegenbauer, Jacobi, Laguerre and Hermite polynomials. The methods described here apply in principle to an class of polynomials, including non-orthogonal polynomials. Index Terms—Fourier series, Gegenbauer polynomials, Jacobi polynomials, Laguerre polynomials, Hermite polynomials. An explicit formula for the Fourier coef cients of Legendre polynomials appears in the Bateman Manuscript Project [3, 4, 5, 6]. One nds that Pn(x) = 1 X k= 1 b Pn (k) e x (1) where b Pn (k) = 1 2 Z 1

Numerical solution of general nonlinear Fredholm-Volterra integral equations using Chebyshev ‎approximation

A numerical method for solving nonlinear Fredholm-Volterra integral equations of general type is presented. This method is based on replacement of unknown function by truncated series of well known Chebyshev expansion of functions. The quadrature formulas which we use to calculate integral terms have been imated by Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). This is a grate advantage of this method which has...

Solving singular integral equations by using orthogonal polynomials

In this paper, a special technique is studied by using the orthogonal Chebyshev polynomials to get approximate solutions for singular and hyper-singular integral equations of the first kind. A singular integral equation is converted to a system of algebraic equations based on using special properties of Chebyshev series. The error bounds are also stated for the regular part of approximate solut...

Fourier Series of Orthogonal Polynomials

It follows from Bateman [4] page 213 after setting = 1 2 . It can also be found with slight modi cation in Bateman [5] page122. However we are not aware of any reference where explicit formulas for the Fourier coef cients for Gegenbauer, Jacobi, Laguerre and Hermite polynomials can be found. In this article we use known formulas for the connection coef cients relating an arbitrary orthogonal po...

2 9 Ja n 20 04 MEAN CONVERGENCE OF ORTHOGONAL FOURIER SERIES AND INTERPOLATING POLYNOMIALS

For a family of weight functions that include the general Jacobi weight functions as special cases, exact condition for the convergence of the Fourier orthogonal series in the weighted L space is given. The result is then used to establish a Marcinkiewicz-Zygmund type inequality and to study weighted mean convergence of various interpolating polynomials based on the zeros of the corresponding o...

Buckling and vibration analysis of angle -ply symmetric laminated composite plates with fully elastic boundaries

The main focus of this paper is on efficiency analysis of two kinds of approximating functions (characteristic orthogonal polynomials and characteristic beam functions) that have been applied in the Rayleigh-Ritz method to determine the non-dimensional buckling and frequency parameters of an angle ply symmetric laminated composite plate with fully elastic boundaries. It has been observed that o...
