Further Information

Robust polynomial rootfinders are exploited to compute roots on a real interval of nonpolynomial function \(f(x)\) by (i) expanding \(f\) as a Chebyshev polynomial series, (ii) converting to a polynomial in ordinary form, and (iii) applying the polynomial rootfinder. Two conversion strategies are described:``convert-to-powers'' and ``degree-doubling''. Both strategies allow simultaneous approximation of many roots on an interval, whether simple or multiple.
