• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A First Course on Orthogonal Polynomials: Classical Orthogonal Polynomials and Related Topics provides an introduction to orthogonal polynomials and special functions aimed at graduate students studying these topics for the first time. A large part of its content is essentially inspired by the works of Pascal Maroni on the so-called algebraic theory of orthogonal polynomials, which distinguishes it from other contributions in the field.

Features
Suitable for a graduate course in orthogonal polynomialsCan be used for a short course on the algebraic theory of orthogonal polynomials and its applicability to the study of the "old" classical orthogonal polynomialsIncludes numerous exercises for each topicReal and complex analysis are the only prerequisites
