We propose a novel method for studying the production of anticentauro events in high energy heavy ion collisions utilizing Chebyshev expansion coefficients. These coefficients have proved to be very efficient in investigating the pattern of fluctuations in neutral pion fraction. For the anticentauro like events, the magnitude of first few coefficients is strongly enhanced (≈3 times) as compared...

We provide an algorithm to compute arbitrarily many nodes and weights for rational Gauss-Chebyshev quadrature formulas integrating exactly in spaces of rational functions with complex poles outside [−1, 1]. Contrary to existing rational quadrature formulas, the computational effort is very low, even for extremely high degrees, and under certain conditions on the poles it can be shown that the c...

The problem of crack propagation along the interface of two bonded dissimilar orthotropic plates is considered. Using Galilean transformation, the problem is reduced to a quasistatic one. Then, using Fourier transforms and asymptotic analysis, the problem is reduced to a pair of singular integral equations with Cauchy-type singularity. These equations are solved using Gauss-Chebyshev quadrature...

For n × n Vandermonde matrix Vn = (αi−1 j )1≤i j≤n with translated Chebyshev zero nodes, it is discovered that V T n admits an explicit QR decomposition with the R-factor consisting of the coefficients of the translated Chebyshev polynomials of degree less than n. This decomposition then leads to an exact expression for the condition number of its submatrix Vk,n = (αi−1 j )1≤i≤k,1≤j≤n (so-calle...

The multivariate integer Chebyshev problem is to find polynomials with integer coefficients that minimize the supremum norm over a compact set in C. We study this problem on general sets, but devote special attention to product sets such as cube and polydisk. We also establish a multivariate analog of the Hilbert-Fekete upper bound for the integer Chebyshev constant, which depends on the dimens...

We characterize inner product spaces in terms of the relationship between the relative Chebyshev center of a set and the absolute Cheby-shev center of an associated set. A consequence of the characterization is that an existing nite algorithm can be adapted to calculate the center of a nite set relative to a nite dimensional aane space. We also discuss the case where the constraint set is nonli...

We study Chebyshev filter diagonalization as a tool for the computation of many interior eigenvalues of very large sparse symmetric matrices. In this technique the subspace projection onto the target space of wanted eigenvectors is approximated with high-order filter polynomials obtained from a regularized Chebyshev expansion of a window function. After a short discussion of the conceptual foun...

This paper is a companion to a lecture given at the Prague Spring School in Analysis in April 2006. It highlights four distinct variational methods of proving that a finite dimensional Chebyshev set is convex and hopes to inspire renewed work on the open question of whether every Chebyshev set in Hilbert space is convex.

In this paper, an Adomian decomposition method using Chebyshev orthogonal polynomials is proposed to solve a well-known class of weakly singular Volterra integral equations. Comparison with the collocation method using polynomial spline approximation with Legendre Radau points reveals that the Adomian decomposition method using Chebyshev orthogonal polynomials is of high accuracy and reduces th...

In this paper, we propose the Chebyshev wavelet approximation for the numerical solution of a class of integrodifferential equation which describes the charged particle motion for certain configurations of oscillating magnetic fields. We show that the Chebyshev approximation transform an integral equation to an explicit system of linear algebraic equations. Illustrative examples are included to...
