Return the scaled companion matrix of a 1-D array of Laguerre polynomial coefficients in Python

To return the scaled companion matrix of a 1-D array of Laguerre polynomial coefficients, use the laguerre.lagvander3d() in Python Numpy. The usual companion matrix of the Laguerre polynomials is already symmetric when c is a basis Laguerre polynomial, so no scaling is applied.

Returns the Companion matrix of dimensions (deg, deg). The parameter, c is a 1-D array of Laguerre series coefficients ordered from low to high degree.

Steps

At first, import the required library −

import numpy as np
from numpy.polynomial import laguerre as L

Create a 1D array of coefficients −

c = np.array([1, 2, 3])

Display the array −

print("Our Array...\n",c)

Check the Dimensions −

print("\nDimensions of our Array...\n",c.ndim)

Get the Datatype −

print("\nDatatype of our Array object...\n",c.dtype)

Get the Shape −

print("\nShape of our Array object...\n",c.shape)

To return the scaled companion matrix of a 1-D array of Laguerre polynomial coefficients, use the laguerre.lagvander3d() in Python Numpy −

print("\nResult...\n",L.lagcompanion(c))

Example

import numpy as np
from numpy.polynomial import laguerre as L

# Create a 1D array of coefficients
c = np.array([1, 2, 3])

# Display the array
print("Our Array...\n",c)

# Check the Dimensions
print("\nDimensions of our Array...\n",c.ndim)

# Get the Datatype
print("\nDatatype of our Array object...\n",c.dtype)

# Get the Shape
print("\nShape of our Array object...\n",c.shape)

# To return the scaled companion matrix of a 1-D array of Laguerre polynomial coefficients, use the laguerre.lagvander3d() in Python Numpy
print("\nResult...\n",L.lagcompanion(c))

Output

Our Array...
   [1 2 3]

Dimensions of our Array...
1

Datatype of our Array object...
int64

Shape of our Array object...
(3,)

Result...
   [[ 1. -0.33333333]
   [-1. 4.33333333]]
