archimedes.quadrature.gauss_laguerre(n: int) → QuadratureRule

Gauss-Laguerre quadrature rule with n nodes.

Nodes are the roots of the degree-n Laguerre polynomial \(L_n(x)\). The rule is exact for polynomials up to degree \(2n - 1\), weighted by the reference weight \(e^{-x}\) on \([0, \infty)\).

Parameters:

n (int) – Number of quadrature nodes.

Returns:

rule – Gauss-Laguerre rule with n nodes on \([0, \infty)\), exact to degree \(2n - 1\).

Return type:

QuadratureRule
