Fast Polynomial Transforms

Classical orthogonal polynomials and the related associated functions are real classics in approximation theory. They share a rich history of research that has uncovered their many relationships to topics of fundamental importance. This text develops a new aspect of the so-called connection problem. This problem asks how a given expansion in a specific sequence of polynomials or functions may be converted into an equivalent one using a different sequence - often within reason, that is, within the same classical family. A new theory relates this problem to the class of semiseparable matrices. This implies efficient algorithms that have the capacity to cover the connection problem not only numerically efficient, but at the same time, numerically stable. The result has implications for numerical problems whose treatment involves these transformations. One such example, described in more detail, are generalizations of the fast Fourier transform to geometries like the two-sphere or the rotation group SO(3).
Fast Transforms Algorithms, Analyses, Applications

This book has grown from notes used by the authors to instruct fast transform classes. One class was sponsored by the Training Department of Rockwell International, and another was sponsored by the Department of Electrical Engineering of The University of Texas at Arlington. Some of the material was also used in a short course sponsored by the University of Southern California. The authors are indebted to their students for motivating the writing of this book and for suggestions to improve it.

. . . that is what learning is. You suddenly understand something you've un derstood all your life, but in a new way. Various transforms have been widely used in diverse applications of science, engineering and technology. New transforms are emerging to solve many problems, which may have been left unsolved in the past, or newly created by modern science or technologies. Various meth ods have been continuously reported to improve the implementation of these transforms. Early developments of fast algorithms for discrete transforms have significantly stimulated the advance of digital signal processing technologies. More than 40 years after fast Fourier transform algorithms became known, several discrete transforms, including the discrete Hart ley transform and discrete cosine transform, were proposed and widely used for numerous applications. Although they all are related to the discrete Fourier transform, different fast algorithms and their implementations have to be separately developed to minimize compu tational complexity and implementation costs. In spite of the tremendous increase in the speed of computers or processors, the demands for higher processing throughout seemingly never ends. Fast algorithms have become more important than ever for modern applications to become a reality. Many new algorithms recently reported in the literature have led to important improvements upon a number of issues, which will be addressed in this book. Some discrete transforms are not suitable for signals that have time-varying frequency components. Although several approaches are available for such applications, various inher ent problems still remain unsolved.
