(1-xt)/(1-2xt+t^2)=sum(Tn(x)t^n)
How can i prove this equation?

Could you give me a hint or suggestion?

What's the definition of Chebyshev's polynomials ? I'd also hint that you can use the ODE which the polynomials solve exactly.

Daniel.

P.S. The "p" in "Chepyshev" is actually reversed upside down and it's a "b".

Tn(x)=y
(1-x^2)y" - xy' + (n^2)y=0
Am i have to solve this equation?
 
i know how to write Chebyshev but it is just a mistake cause of fast typing.
 
Hi, I had an exam and I completely messed up a problem. Especially one part which was necessary for the rest of the problem. Basically, I have a wormhole metric: $$(ds)^2 = -(dt)^2 + (dr)^2 + (r^2 + b^2)( (d\theta)^2 + sin^2 \theta (d\phi)^2 )$$ Where ##b=1## with an orbit only in the equatorial plane. We also know from the question that the orbit must satisfy this relationship: $$\varepsilon = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{dr}{d\tau})^2 + V_{eff}(r)$$ Ultimately, I was tasked to find the initial...
The value of H equals ## 10^{3}## in natural units, According to : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units, ## t \sim 10^{-21} sec = 10^{21} Hz ##, and since ## \text{GeV} \sim 10^{24} \text{Hz } ##, ## GeV \sim 10^{24} \times 10^{-21} = 10^3 ## in natural units. So is this conversion correct? Also in the above formula, can I convert H to that natural units , since it’s a constant, while keeping k in Hz ?
