Polynomial Sequence - Examples

Examples

Some polynomial sequences arise in physics and approximation theory as the solutions of certain ordinary differential equations:

  • Laguerre polynomials
  • Chebyshev polynomials
  • Legendre polynomials
  • Jacobi polynomials

Others come from statistics:

  • Hermite polynomials

Many are studied in algebra and combinatorics:

  • Monomials
  • Rising factorials
  • Falling factorials
  • Abel polynomials
  • Bell polynomials
  • Bernoulli polynomials
  • Dickson polynomials
  • Fibonacci polynomials
  • Lagrange polynomials
  • Lucas polynomials
  • Spread polynomials
  • Touchard polynomials
  • Rook polynomials

Famous quotes containing the word examples:

    No rules exist, and examples are simply life-savers answering the appeals of rules making vain attempts to exist.
    André Breton (1896–1966)

    In the examples that I here bring in of what I have [read], heard, done or said, I have refrained from daring to alter even the smallest and most indifferent circumstances. My conscience falsifies not an iota; for my knowledge I cannot answer.
    Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
