1 Mathematica eamples relevant to Legendre functions Legendre Polynomials are built in Here is Legendre s equation, and Mathematica recognizes as being solved by Legendre polynomials (LegendreP) and the second solution (LegendreQ) DSolve@H ^ L y ''@D y '@D + n Hn + L y@d, y@d, D y@d C@D LegendreP@n, D + C@D LegendreQ@n, D<< Evaluating and plotting first few Legendre polynomials Table@n, LegendreP@n, D<, n,, 6<D TableForm 4 6 H + L H + L H + 4 L H L I M legto = Table@LegendreP@n, D, n,, <D :,, I + M, I + M> Plot of first 4 Legendre Polynomials

Checking Generating Function _D := h + h ^ D Series@phi@h, D, h,, 6<D +h+ + h + I M h h + I + 4 M h4 + I M h6 + O@hD7 Compare to see that the coefficient on h^n is indeed P_n Table@SeriesCoefficient@phi@h, D, h,, l<d Simplify, LegendreP@l, D<, l,, 6<D TableForm H + L H + L H + 4 L H L I M H + L H + L H + 4 L H L I M The Simple Eamples of Legendre Polynomials in Physics The a single charged particle s ' l= = S Hr'Ll l+ l= r r potential can be written in terms of Legendre Prolynomials: Pl HcosΓL where cosγ is the angle between (the position vector to the point of observation) and ' (the position vector to the point where the charge is located). This series is only convergent for r>r (away from the source).
4 4 l= ' = S Hr'Ll l+ l= r Pl HcosΓL where cosγ is the angle between (the position vector to the point of observation) and ' (the position vector to the point where the charge is located). This series is only convergent for r>r (away from the source). A simple case is a point charge shifted off of the origin at point (,). Looking at the slice at y=, cosγ=/+ depending if you are on the right or the left of the point charge, in other words cosγ=sign[]. Lastly we can simplify because the Legendre Polynomials are normalized Pl HL = and are even/odd for even/odd l. This means we can replace LegendreP[l,Sign[]] with just (Sign[])^l ManipulateBPlotB: H + L, SumB l+ H Sign@DLl, l,, ll<f>,,, <, PlotRange., <, AspectRatio, PlotLegends :" Ó Ó ' l=ll ", " S l= Hr 'Ll r l+ Pl HcosΓL">, PlotStyle Orange, Blue<F, ll,,, <F ll.. '. l=ll S Hr'Ll l+ l= r Pl HcosΓL. As we add higher moments the approimation becomes better in the region r>r. To see this in D:
5 ManipulateB PlotDB: H + L + y, SumB LegendrePBl, l+ + y +y,, <, y,, <, AspectRatio, PlotRange,.<, PlotStyle Orange, Blue<, PlotLegends :" Ó Ó ' l=ll ", " S l= Hr 'Ll r l+ F, l,, ll<f>, Pl HcosΓL">F, ll,,, <F ll.4 ' l=ll S.. Hr'Ll l+ l= r Pl HcosΓL For a slightly more interesting eample, we can look at a physical dipole, with a positive charge at (,) and a negative charge at (,). Again in a y= slice, adding the Legendre polynomial for each term by term looks like Pl HSign@DL Pl HSign@DL For any even l, this will vanish and for odd l it will equal *Sign[]. This makes sense because the charge distribution is odd along the ais. Considering there is no net charge it makes sense there will be no monopole term.

Eact Sum up to ll.. To get an idea of how quickly the sum converges, lets look at the Log of the absolute value of the differences, dipoleres@_, y_, ll_d := LogBAbsB H + L + y LegendrePBl, l+ +y +y H L + y F LegendrePBl, SumB +y F, l,, ll, <FFF
8 y, lld,,, <, y,, <, AspectRatio, PlotRange 4, <, PlotLegends Sum up to lldd"<d, ll,,, <D ll Sum up to lldd 4 We see it converges quickly and tends to be a better approimation for larger r. We can also see if we bring the two point charges closer to the origin, the l= dipole term becomes eact. This is the same as if we were zooming out, observing from greater r.
