AdaptiveStieltjesAlgorithm

class AdaptiveStieltjesAlgorithm(*args)

AdaptiveStieltjes algorithm used to build the orthonormal basis.

The algorithm builds a polynomial basis orthonormal with respect to a specific distribution.

Parameters:
measure : Distribution

A measure for which the orthonormal polynomial basis is built.

Notes

It implements an adaptive Stieltjes algorithm that builds the polynomial family orthonormal with respect to the distribution measure, using the GaussKronrod adaptive integration method to compute the following dot-products: R_n=\langle Q_n, Q_n\rangle and S_n=\langle xQ_n, Q_n\rangle where Q_n is the monic polynomial associated to the orthonormal polynomial P_n, needed to compute the coefficients of the three-terms recurrence relation that defines P_n (see OrthogonalUnivariatePolynomialFamily):

a_n = 1/\sqrt{\beta_{n+1}}\quad b_n = -\alpha_n/sqrt{\beta_{n+1}}\quad c_n = -\sqrt{\beta_n/\beta_{n+1}}

where \alpha_n = S_n / R_n and \beta_n = R_n / R_{n-1}, n>0, \beta_0 = 0.
