Description
|
|
|
•
|
For a non-negative integer  , the HermiteH(n, x) function computes the nth Hermite polynomial.
|
|
•
|
The Hermite polynomials are orthogonal on the interval  with respect to the weight function  . They satisfy:
|
|
•
|
Hermite polynomials satisfy the following recurrence relation:
|
|
|
where HermiteH(0,x) = 1 and HermiteH(1,x) = 2*x.
|
|
•
|
For n different from a non-negative integer, the analytic extension of the Hermite polynomial is given by:
