scipy.special.sh_chebyt#
- scipy.special.sh_chebyt(n, monic=False)[source]#
Shifted Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind.
Defined as \(T^*_n(x) = T_n(2x - 1)\) for \(T_n\) the nth Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind.
- Parameters:
- nint
Degree of the polynomial.
- monicbool, optional
If True, scale the leading coefficient to be 1. Default is False.
- Returns:
- Torthopoly1d
Shifted Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind.
Notes
The polynomials \(T^*_n\) are orthogonal over \([0, 1]\) with weight function \((x - x^2)^{-1/2}\).
