| hermite.h.polynomials {orthopolynom} | R Documentation |
Create list of Hermite polynomials
Description
This function returns a list with n + 1 elements containing
the order k Hermite polynomials, H_k \left( x \right),
for orders k = 0,\;1,\; \ldots ,\;n.
Usage
hermite.h.polynomials(n, normalized=FALSE)
Arguments
n |
integer value for the highest polynomial order |
normalized |
a boolean value which, if TRUE, returns a list of normalized orthogonal polynomials |
Details
The function hermite.h.recurrences produces a data frame with the recurrence relation parameters
for the polynomials. If the normalized argument is FALSE, the
function orthogonal.polynomials is used to construct the list of orthogonal polynomial objects.
Otherwise, the function orthonormal.polynomials is used to construct
list of orthonormal polynomial objects.
Value
A list of n + 1 polynomial objects
1 |
order 0 Hermite polynomial |
2 |
order 1 Hermite polynomial |
...
n+1 |
order |
