Chebyshev polynomials - Wikipedia
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev_polynomialsThe Chebyshev polynomials are two sequences of polynomials related to the cosine and sine functions, notated as and . They can be defined several equivalent ways; in this article the polynomials are defined by starting with trigonometric functions: The Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind are given by Similarly, define the Chebyshev polynomials of the second kind as
Chebyshev polynomials - Wikipedia
en.wikipedia.org › wiki › Chebyshev_polynomialsA Chebyshev polynomial of either kind with degree n has n different simple roots, called Chebyshev roots, in the interval [−1, 1]. The roots of the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind are sometimes called Chebyshev nodes because they are used as nodes in polynomial interpolation. Using the trigonometric definition and the fact that
