We give a remarkable additional orthogonality property of the classical Legendre polynomials on the real interval $[-1,1]$: polynomials up to degree $n$ from this family are mutually orthogonal under the arcsine measure weighted by the…

We present a pointwise inequality for adjacent even Legendre polynomials in high dimensional spheres featuring the effect of spectral gaps. This improves a recent result of Imbert, Silvestre and Villani that is crucially used in their study…

In this paper, new relations between the derivatives of the Legendre polynomials are obtained, and by these relations, new upper bounds for the Legendre coefficients of differentiable functions are presented. These upper bounds are sharp…

It is well-known that separation of variables in 2nd order partial differential equations (PDEs) for physical problems with spherical symmetry usually leads to Cauchy's differential equation for the radial coordinate and Legendre's…

We prove effective equidistribution theorems, with polynomial error rate, for orbits of the unipotent subgroups of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb R)$ in arithmetic quotients of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb C)$ and $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb…

In the moduli space of degree d polynomials, we prove the equidistribution of postcritically finite polynomials toward the bifurcation measure. More precisely, using complex analytic arguments and pluripotential theory, we prove the…

In this paper, we provide a new and sharper bound for the Legendre coefficients of differentiable functions and then derive a new error bound of the truncated Legendre series in the uniform norm. The key idea of proof relies on integration…

We compare the convergence behavior of best polynomial approximations and Legendre and Chebyshev projections and derive optimal rates of convergence of Legendre projections for analytic and differentiable functions in the maximum norm. For…

A classical result of Erdos and Turan states that if a monic polynomial has small size on the unit circle and its constant coefficient is not too small, then its zeros cluster near the unit circle and become equidistributed in angle. Using…

This is a companion paper to arXiv:2312.10772. We deduce an equidistribution theorem for periodic nilsequences and use this theorem to give two applications in arithmetic combinatorics. The first application is quasi-polynomial bounds for a…

We describe an expansion of Legendre polynomials, analogous to the Taylor expansion, to approximate arbitrary functions. We show that the polynomial coefficients in Legendre expansion, therefore the whole series, converge to zero much more…

We prove a function field analog of Weyl's classical theorem on equidistribution of polynomial sequences. Our result covers the case in which the degree of the polynomial is greater than or equal to the characteristic of the field, which is…

We prove an effective equidistribution theorem for orbits of horospherical subgroups of $\mathrm{SO}(2, 2)$ and $\mathrm{SO}(3, 1)$ in quotients of $\mathrm{SL}_4(\mathbb{R})$ with a polynomial error term. In a forthcoming paper, we will…

In the present paper, we deal mainly with arithmetic properties of Legendre polynomials by using their orthogonality property. We show that Legendre polynomials are proportional with Bernoulli, Euler, Hermite and Bernstein polynomials.

We report results on various techniques which allow to compute the expansion into Legendre (or in general Gegenbauer) polynomials in an efficient way. We describe in some detail the algebraic/symbolic approach already presented in Ref.1 and…

Algorithms for jointly obtaining projection estimates of the density and distribution function of a random variable using Legendre polynomials are proposed. For these algorithms, a problem of the conditional optimization is solved. Such…

In this paper we study a number of conjectures on the behavior of the value distribution of eigenfunctions. On the two dimensional torus we observe that the symmetry conjecture holds in the strongest possible sense. On the other hand we…

Let $\Gamma$ be a lattice in $G=\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$. We give an effective equidistribution result with precise error terms for expanding translates of pieces of horospherical orbits in $\Gamma\backslash G$. Our method of proof relies…

We construct a class of multiple Legendre polynomials and prove that they satisfy an Ap\'ery-like recurrence. We give new upper bounds of the approximation measures of logarithms of rational numbers by algebraic numbers of bounded degree.…

We use a Legendre polynomial expansion to find the electrostatic potential of a uniformly charged disk. We then use the potential to find the electric field of the disk.
