Let
be a polynomial of degree
and positive when
. The Bernstein–Szegö polynomials
,
, are orthogonal on
with respect to three types of
weight function:
,
,
. In consequence,
can be given explicitly in terms of
and sines and cosines, provided that
in the
first case,
in the second case, and
in the third
case. See Szegö (1975, §2.6).
