| In [[mathematics]] the '''Legendre rational functions''' are a sequence of functions which are both [[rational functions|rational]] and [[orthogonal functions|orthogonal]]. A rational Legendre function of degree ''n'' is defined as:
| |
| | |
| :<math>R_n(x) = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{x+1}\,L_n\left(\frac{x-1}{x+1}\right)</math>
| |
| | |
| where <math>L_n(x)</math> is a [[Legendre polynomial]]. These functions are [[eigenfunction]]s of the singular [[Sturm-Liouville problem]]:
| |
| | |
| :<math>(x+1)\partial_x(x\partial_x((x+1)v(x)))+\lambda v(x)=0</math>
| |
| | |
| with eigenvalues
| |
| | |
| :<math>\lambda_n=n(n+1)\,</math>
| |
| | |
| == Properties==
| |
| | |
| Many properties can be derived from the properties of the Legendre polynomials of the first kind. Other properties are unique to the functions themselves.
| |
| | |
| === Recursion ===
| |
| | |
| :<math>R_{n+1}(x)=\frac{2n+1}{n+1}\,\frac{x-1}{x+1}\,R_n(x)-\frac{n}{n+1}\,R_{n-1}(x)\quad\mathrm{for\,n\ge 1}</math>
| |
| | |
| and | |
| | |
| :<math>2(2n+1)R_n(x)=(x+1)^2(\partial_x R_{n+1}(x)-\partial_x R_{n-1}(x))+(x+1)(R_{n+1}(x)-R_{n-1}(x))</math>
| |
| | |
| === Limiting behavior ===
| |
| [[Image:LegendreRational2.png|thumb|300px|Plot of the seventh order (''n=7'') Legendre rational function multiplied by ''1+x'' for ''x'' between 0.01 and 100. Note that there are ''n'' zeroes arranged symmetrically about ''x=1'' and if ''x''<sub>0</sub> is a zero, then ''1/x''<sub>0</sub> is a zero as well. These properties hold for all orders.]]
| |
| It can be shown that
| |
| | |
| :<math>\lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}(x+1)R_n(x)=\sqrt{2}</math>
| |
| | |
| and
| |
| | |
| :<math>\lim_{x\rightarrow \infty}x\partial_x((x+1)R_n(x))=0</math>
| |
| | |
| === Orthogonality ===
| |
| | |
| :<math>\int_{0}^\infty R_m(x)\,R_n(x)\,dx=\frac{2}{2n+1}\delta_{nm}</math> | |
| | |
| where <math>\delta_{nm}</math> is the [[Kronecker delta]] function.
| |
| | |
| == Particular values ==
| |
| | |
| :<math>R_0(x)=1\,</math>
| |
| :<math>R_1(x)=\frac{x-1}{x+1}\,</math>
| |
| :<math>R_2(x)=\frac{x^2-4x+1}{(x+1)^2}\,</math>
| |
| :<math>R_3(x)=\frac{x^3-9x^2+9x-1}{(x+1)^3}\,</math> | |
| :<math>R_4(x)=\frac{x^4-16x^3+36x^2-16x+1}{(x+1)^4}\,</math>
