Jacobi PolynomialAlso known as the Hypergeometric Polynomials, they occur in the study ofRotation Groups and in the solution to the equations of motion of the symmetrictop. They are solutions to the Jacobi Differential Equation. Plugging
| (1) |
into the differential equation gives the Recurrence Relation
| (2) |
for , 1, ..., where
| (3) |
Solving the Recurrence Relation gives
| (4) |
for . They form a complete orthogonal system in the interval with respect to the weightingfunction
| (5) |
and are normalized according to
| (6) |
where is a Binomial Coefficient. Jacobi polynomials can also be written

where is the Gamma Function and
| (8) |
Jacobi polynomials are Orthogonal satisfying

The Coefficient of the term in is given by
| (10) |
They satisfy the Recurrence Relationwhere is the Rising Factorial
| (12) |
The Derivative is given by
| (13) |
The Orthogonal Polynomials with Weighting Function on the Closed Interval can be expressed in the form

(Szegö 1975, p. 58).
Special cases with are

The Kernel Polynomial is | | | (22) | (Szegö 1975, p. 71).
The Discriminant is

(Szegö 1975, p. 143).
For , reduces to a Legendre Polynomial. The Gegenbauer Polynomial
| (24) |
and Chebyshev Polynomial of the First Kind can also be viewed as special cases of the JacobiPolynomials. In terms of the Hypergeometric Function,

where is the Floor Function, and
If the cases , , ..., , , , ..., , and , , ..., are excluded, then the number of zeros of in the respective intervals are
