1. Introduction.—The object of this paper is twofold: firstly, to present a table of the Chebyshev polynomials Cn(x) = 2 cos (n cos−1 ½x) for n = I(I)12 and x = o(o·o2)2, values being exact or to 10 decimals; secondly, to provide a working list of coefficients and formulæ relating to these and allied functions.
Valuable accounts of applications and properties will be found in Van der Pol and Weijers, 1933, in Lanczos, 1938, and in Szego, 1939. Further applications are indicated in the following paper, by J. C. P. Miller, which also suggests methods of reducing the inconvenience caused by the present lack of tables of the allied polynomials Sn(x). It is hoped that suitable tables will be prepared later.
