numpy.polynomial.hermite_e.hermefromroots

polynomial.hermite_e.hermefromroots(roots) [source]

Generate a HermiteE series with given roots.

The function returns the coefficients of the polynomial

p(x) = (x - r_0) * (x - r_1) * ... * (x - r_n),

in HermiteE form, where the r_n are the roots specified in roots. If a zero has multiplicity n, then it must appear in roots n times. For instance, if 2 is a root of multiplicity three and 3 is a root of multiplicity 2, then roots looks something like [2, 2, 2, 3, 3]. The roots can appear in any order.

If the returned coefficients are c, then

p(x) = c_0 + c_1 * He_1(x) + ... +  c_n * He_n(x)

The coefficient of the last term is not generally 1 for monic polynomials in HermiteE form.

Parameters
rootsarray_like

Sequence containing the roots.

Returns
outndarray

1-D array of coefficients. If all roots are real then out is a real array, if some of the roots are complex, then out is complex even if all the coefficients in the result are real (see Examples below).

Examples

>>> from numpy.polynomial.hermite_e import hermefromroots, hermeval
>>> coef = hermefromroots((-1, 0, 1))
>>> hermeval((-1, 0, 1), coef)
array([0., 0., 0.])
>>> coef = hermefromroots((-1j, 1j))
>>> hermeval((-1j, 1j), coef)
array([0.+0.j, 0.+0.j])
