orthogonality of Chebyshev polynomials from recursion


In this entry, we shall demonstrate the orthogonalityrelation of the Chebyshev polynomialsDlmfPlanetmath from theirrecursion relationMathworldPlanetmath. Recall that this relation reads as

Tn+1(x)-2xTn(x)+Tn-1=0

with initial conditionsMathworldPlanetmath T0(x)=1 and T1(x)=x.The relation we seek to demonstrate is

-1+1𝑑xTm(x)Tn(x)1-x2=0

when mn.

We start with the observation that Tn is an even functionwhen n is even and an odd function when n is odd. Thatthis is true for T0 and T1 follows immediately from theirdefinitions. When n>1, we may induce this from therecursion. Suppose that Tm(-x)=(-1)mTm(x) whenm<n. Then we have

Tn+1(-x)=2(-x)Tn(-x)-Tn-1(-x)
=-(-1)n2xTn(x)-(-1)n-1Tn-1(x)
=(-1)n+1(2xTn(x)-Tn-1(x))
=(-1)n+1Tn+1(x).

From this observation, we may immediately conclude halfof orthogonality. Suppose that m and n are nonnegativeintegers whose difference is odd. Then Tm(-x)Tn(-x)=-Tm(x)Tn(x), so we have

-1+1𝑑xTm(x)Tn(x)1-x2=0

because the integrand is an odd function of x.

To cover the remaining cases, we shall proceed by inductionMathworldPlanetmath.Assume that Tk is orthogonalPlanetmathPlanetmath to Tm whenever mnand kn and mk. By the conclusionsMathworldPlanetmath of lastparagraph, we know that Tn+1 is orthogonal to Tn.Assume then that mn-1. Using the recursion, we have

-1+1𝑑xTm(x)Tn+1(x)1-x2=2-1+1𝑑xxTm(x)Tn(x)1-x2--1+1𝑑xTm(x)Tn-1(x)1-x2
=-1+1𝑑xTm+1(x)Tn(x)1-x2+-1+1𝑑xTm-1(x)Tn(x)1-x2--1+1𝑑xTm(x)Tn-1(x)1-x2

By our assumptionPlanetmathPlanetmath, each of the three integrals is zero,hence Tn+1 is orthogonal to Tm, so we concludethat Tk is orthogonal to Tm when mn+1 andkn+1 and mk.
