(n, alpha, x, out=None) = <ufunc 'eval_gegenbauer'>¶ Evaluate Gegenbauer polynomial at a point.
The Gegenbauer polynomials can be defined via the Gauss hypergeometric function \({}_2F_1\) as
\[C_n^{(\alpha)} = \frac{(2\alpha)_n}{\Gamma(n + 1)} {}_2F_1(-n, 2\alpha + n; \alpha + 1/2; (1 - z)/2).\]When \(n\) is an integer the result is a polynomial of degree \(n\).
Parameters: - n : array_like
Degree of the polynomial. If not an integer, the result is determined via the relation to the Gauss hypergeometric function.
- alpha : array_like
Parameter
- x : array_like
Points at which to evaluate the Gegenbauer polynomial
Returns: - C : ndarray
