Abstract

Gegenbauer polynomials are obtained through well known linear algebra methods based on Sturm-Liouville theory. A matrix corresponding to the Gegenbauer differential operator is found and its eigenvalues are obtained. The elements of the eigenvectors obtained corresponds to the Gegenbauer polynomials.
