Jacobi polynomials [jə′kō·bē ‚päl·ə′nō·mē·əlz]

(mathematics)

Polynomials that are constructed from the hypergeometric function and satisfy the differential equation (1 - x²)y″ + [β - α - (α + β + 2)x]y′ +n(α + β +n+ 1)y= 0, wherenis an integer and α and β are constants greater than -1; in certain cases these generate the Legendre and Chebyshev polynomials.
