ghermite.h.polynomials: Create list of generalized Hermite polynomials

Description

This function returns a list with \(n + 1\) elements containing the order \(k\) generalized Hermite polynomials, \(H_k^{\left( \mu \right)} \left( x \right)\), for orders \(k = 0,\;1,\; \ldots ,\;n\).

Usage

ghermite.h.polynomials(n, mu, normalized = FALSE)

Arguments

n

integer value for the highest polynomial order

mu

numeric value for the polynomial parameter

normalized

boolean value which, if TRUE, returns recurrence relations for normalized polynomials

Value

A list of \(n + 1\) polynomial objects

1

order 0 generalized Hermite polynomial

2

order 1 generalized Hermite polynomial

...

n+1

order \(n\) generalized Hermite polynomial

Details

The parameter \(\mu\) must be greater than -0.5. The function ghermite.h.recurrences produces a data frame with the recurrence relation parameters for the polynomials. If the normalized argument is FALSE, the function orthogonal.polynomials is used to construct the list of orthogonal polynomial objects. Otherwise, the function orthonormal.polynomials is used to construct the list of orthonormal polynomial objects.
