# scipy.special.sh_chebyt

scipy.special.sh_chebyt(n, monic=False)

  Shifted Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind.

  Defined as \(T^*_n(x) = T_n(2x - 1)\) for \(T_n\) the nth Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind.

  Parameters:
    n int

      Degree of the polynomial.

    monic bool, optional

      If True, scale the leading coefficient to be 1. Default is False.

  Returns:
    T orthopoly1d

      Shifted Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind.

  Notes

  The polynomials \(T^*_n\) are orthogonal over \([0, 1]\) with weight function \((x - x^2)^{-1/2}\).
