Formula for $T_k(x + 1)$ where $T_k$ is $k$-th Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind
Let $T_k(x)$ be the Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind of order $k$, i.e., the polynomial given by the recurrence relation
\begin{align}
T_0(x)=1, \quad T_1(x)=x, \quad T_k(x)=2xT_{k-1}(x)-T_{k-2}(...

Chebyshev/Taylor polynomial error
So i have this equation:
$ y = x^2 * sqrt(1-x^2)$
when i work out the chebyshev polynomials and the taylor polynomials there is an offset of 0.18 between them.
to work out the polynomials i used:
$...

Is the following matrix defined by the roots of Chebyshev polynomial invertible?
Let $x_0, \dots , x_n$ be the roots of the Chebyshev polynomial $T_{n+1}(x)$.
We define:
$$A=\begin{pmatrix}
\frac{1}{\sqrt2}T_0(x_0) & \cdots & \frac{1}{\sqrt2}T_0(x_n) \\
T_1(x_0) & \...

Proving that $T_0, T_1, T_2, ...$ are basis of $\mathbb{R}[x]$
I am given that the Chebyshev polynomial $T_n(x) \in \mathbb{Q}[x]$ is a polynomial such that $T_0(x) = 1$, $T_1(x) = x$ and for $n \ge 2$,
$T_n(x) = 2xT_{n-1}(x)-T_{n-2}(x)$
Now, I am supposed to ...

Does $\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} f(\lambda_i) = \text{tr}(f(A))$ hold for any function $f$?
We know that given a $n$-by-$n$ matrix $A$, and
its eigen values $\{\lambda_i\}_1^n$
its trace $\text{tr}(A)$.
then the following holds:
$$ \sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} \lambda_i = \text{tr}(A) $$
then ...

A question about extending polynomial span to monomial basis
I have a final next week and our instructor gave us some examples with solutions but I could not understand some operations.
Inner product is
$$(p,q)=\int_{-1}^{1} p(t)q(t)dt$$
$W = Span\{1,t,t^2\}$ ...

(dis)proving $Span((\cos nx)_{n\in\mathbb{N}})=Span((\cos^nx)_{n\in\mathbb{N}})$ in $\mathbb{R}^\mathbb{R}$
I am trying to show that $Span((\cos nx)_{n\in\mathbb{N}})=Span((\cos^nx)_{n\in\mathbb{N}})$ in $\mathbb{R}^\mathbb{R}$. ($0\in\mathbb{N}$)
I immediately thought of the Chebyshev polynomials :

Question about chebyshev polynomial
Chebyshev polynomials are defined as such:
$$T_n(x)=\cos(n\arccos(x))$$
I'm asked to show that $\deg(T_j(x))=j$ and that $T_0,T_1,T_2,\ldots,T_n$ are an orthogonal basis of $\Bbb R_n[x]$.
I think I ...
