OrthogonalPolynomialFactory

public final class ChebyshevDoublePolynomialFactory
extends OrthogonalDoublePolynomialFactory

This class implements Chebyshev polynomials.

Chebyshev polynomials can be defined by the following recurrence relations:

  T0(X)   = 1
  T1(X)   = X
  Tk+1(X) = 2X Tk(X) - Tk-1(X)
 

Constructor Summary
