ghermite.h.recurrences {orthopolynom}

Recurrence relations for generalized Hermite polynomials

Description

This function returns a data frame with n + 1 rows and four named columns containing the coefficient vectors c, d, e and f of the recurrence relations for the order k generalized Hermite polynomial, H_k^{\left( \mu \right)} \left( x \right), and for orders k = 0,\;1,\; \ldots ,\;n.

Usage

ghermite.h.recurrences(n, mu, normalized = FALSE)

Arguments

n

integer value for the highest polynomial order

mu

numeric value for the polynomial parameter

normalized

normalized boolean value which, if TRUE, returns recurrence relations for normalized polynomials

Details

The parameter \mu must be greater than -0.5.

Value

A data frame with the recurrence relation parameters.
