In this report, we present two mathematical results which can be useful in a variety of settings. First, we present an analysis of Legendre polynomials triple product integral. Such integrals arise whenever two functions are multiplied, with both the operands and the result represented in the Legendre polynomial basis. We derive a recurrence relation to calculate these integrals analytically. W...

Let be introduced the Sobolev-type inner product (f, g) = 1 2 Z 1 −1 f(x)g(x)dx + M [f ′(1)g′(1) + f ′(−1)g′(−1)], where M ≥ 0. In this paper we will prove that for 1 ≤ p ≤ 4 3 there are functions f ∈ L([−1, 1]) whose Fourier expansion in terms of the orthonormal polynomials with respect to the above Sobolev inner product are divergent almost everywhere on [−1, 1]. We also show that, for some v...

We describe a method for the numerical evaluation of normalized versions of the associated Legendre functions P−μ ν and Q −μ ν of degrees 0 ≤ ν ≤ 1, 000, 000 and orders −ν ≤ μ ≤ ν on the interval (−1, 1). Our algorithm, which runs in time independent of ν and μ, is based on the fact that while the associated Legendre functions themselves are extremely expensive to represent via polynomial expan...

The RK5GL3 method is a numerical method for solving initial value problems in ordinary differential equations, and is based on a combination of a fifth-order Runge-Kutta method and 3-point Gauss-Legendre quadrature. In this paper we describe an effective local error control algorithm for RK5GL3, which uses local extrapolation with an eighth-order Runge-Kutta method in tandem with RK5GL3, and a ...

In this correspondence we determine the linear complexity of all Legendre sequences and the (monic) feedback polynomial of the shortest linear feedback shift register that generates such a Legendre sequence. The result of this correspondence shows that Legendre sequences are quite good from the linear complexity viewpoint.

Many quantitative traits are measured repeatedly during the life of an organism. Such traits are called dynamic traits. The pattern of the changes of a dynamic trait is called the growth trajectory. Studying the growth trajectory may enhance our understanding of the genetic architecture of the growth trajectory. Recently, we developed an interval-mapping procedure to map QTL for dynamic traits ...

Uncertainty propagation in complex engineering systems with fuzzy variables constitutes a significant challenge. This paper proposes a Polynomial Chaos type spectral approach based on orthogonal function expansion. A fuzzy variable is represented as a set of interval variables via the membership function. The interval variables are further transformed into the standard interval [−1,1]. Smooth n...

We consider the problem of recovering polynomials that are sparse with respect to the basis of Legendre polynomials from a small number of random samples. In particular, we show that a Legendre s-sparse polynomial of maximal degree N can be recovered fromm s log(N) random samples that are chosen independently according to the Chebyshev probability measure dν(x) = π−1(1 − x2)−1/2dx. As an effici...

3FunMap is a windows software that can be used to construct genetic linkage maps and perform functional QTL mapping with molecular markers generated in a full-sib family. For linkage analysis, the software utilizes seven segregation types of markers to estimate the recombination and simultaneously predict the linkage phase between any two markers. After two-point linkage analysis, markers are c...
