Associated Legendre Polynomials (Graph)

TOP/Special functions/Orthogonal polynomials
Manage Bookmarks
Calculates and graphs a table of the associated Legendre polynomial Pnm(x).
There are multiple definitions of the Legendre associated polynomial.
(Type A) Used in Wolfram (type2), etc.
\(\normalsize\\ \ P_n^m(x)= {\large \frac{(1+x)^{\frac{m}{2}}}{(1-x)^{\frac{m}{2}}} \frac{\ {}_{\small 2}F_{\small 1} (-n,n+1;1-m;\frac{1-x}{2})}{\Gamma(1-m)} } \\\)

(Type B) Used in Maple and Wolfram (type3), etc.
\(\normalsize\\ \ P_n^m(x)= {\large \frac{(x+1)^{\frac{m}{2}}}{(x-1)^{\frac{m}{2}}} \frac{\ {}_{\small 2}F_{\small 1} (-n,n+1;1-m;\frac{1-x}{2})}{\Gamma(1-m)} } \\ \)
