spherical.inner.products {orthopolynom} | R Documentation |
This function returns a vector with n + 1
elements containing the inner product
of an order k
spherical polynomial, P_k \left( x \right)
,
with itself (i.e. the norm squared) for orders k = 0,\;1,\; \ldots ,\;n
.
spherical.inner.products(n)
n |
integer value for the highest polynomial order |
The formula used to compute the inner products of the spherical orthogonal polynomials is the same as that used for the Legendre orthogonal polynomials.
A vector with n + 1
elements
1 |
inner product of order 0 orthogonal polynomial |
2 |
inner product of order 1 orthogonal polynomial |
...
n+1 |
inner product of order |
