C hebyshev approximation
fse.studenttheses.ub.rug.nl › 15406 › 1This thesis is about Chebyshev approximation. Chebyshev approximation is a part of approximation theory, which is a eld of mathematics about approximating functions with simpler functions. This is done because it can make calculations easier. Most of the time, the approximation is done using polynomials.
Chebyshev Approximations — GSL 2.7 documentation
www.gnu.org › software › gslChebyshev Approximations. This chapter describes routines for computing Chebyshev approximations to univariate functions. A Chebyshev approximation is a truncation of the series , where the Chebyshev polynomials provide an orthogonal basis of polynomials on the interval with the weight function . The first few Chebyshev polynomials are, , , .
THE CHEBYSHEV APPROXIMATION METHOD*
www.ams.org › journals › qam1953] THE CHEBYSHEV APPROXIMATION METHOD 171 Example 2 was presented primarily as an illustration of a function which satisfies the Chebyshev condition yet whose relative maxima are not all equal. For many general functions, however, the Chebyshev condition is satisfied only when all the relative maxima are equal.
